Reading Apply phonic knowledge and skills consistently to decode age appropriate texts fluently and accurately. Beginning to recognize and decode alternative sounds for graphemes; words of two or more syllables; words with common suffixes; and most common exception words, based on what has been taught Sound out unfamiliar words accurately when reading aloud, and read with confidence and fluency. Self-correct where the sense of the text is lost. Recite and know by heart a range of texts using talk for writing techniques.

2 Make inferences about/on what has been read Ask and answer questions appropriately including those based on inference and prediction. Identify sequences of events in texts and give simple explanation of how events relate.

Writing planning or saying out loud what they are going to write about composing and rehearsing sentences through a variety of activities including Talk/Drama for Writing capture ideas using simple planning formats (e.g. single bubble) write down ideas and/or key words, including new vocabulary encapsulating what they want to say sentence by sentence evaluate their own word choices, grammar and punctuation through discussion with others. with support, re-read their own writing to check for meaning, grammar and spelling errors. form and orientate lower case letters accurately, starting and finishing in the correct place. maintain some consistency in the size and spacing of digits and letters throughout pieces of writing. use spacing appropriately between words. segmenting spoken words into phonemes

3 and representing these by graphemes, spelling many correctly learning new ways of spelling phonemes for which 1 or more spellings are already known, and learn some words with each spelling, including a few common homophones learning to spell common exception words Maths Measure time and distance Measure Weight Time and cost Tens and one up to 100 Estimating Number Patterns Doubles Number sorting Adding and Subtracting Grouping and sharing Handling data Block Graphs Comparing data Venn diagrams Measure Length Height and Capacity Challenges and investigations which require children to apply their mathematic skills. Application of skills in a range of settings and contexts. Practical activities manipulating objects as well as written methods. Know the units of time Know the relationships between consecutive units of time Measure activities using seconds and minutes. Estimate, measure and compare lengths, weights and capacities, choosing and using suitable uniform nonstandard and standard units and appropriate measuring instruments. Compare lengths weights and capacities using the standard units: centimetres, metres, 100g kilogram and litre. Know the units of time recognise all coins and some notes Use money notation Find totals: the coins and notes to pay a given amount; work out change. Count in ones and tens from single digit and two digit numbers and back again Know what each digit represents in two digit numbers partition into tens and units Order numbers to 100. Know <> Understand odd and even numbers and recognise these up to at least 20 Find and learn doubles for all numbers up to 10 and also 15, 20, 25 and 50. Find 1 or 10 more or less than any two digit number Add and subtract a single digit to and from a

4 Topic Survival -Different, dead, living -Plants -Needs of animals Learn about and observe the conditions plants and animals need to survive. Discover how animals and plants are interdependent by learning about food two digit number Add pairs of two digit numbers. Find a small difference between pairs of twodigit numbers Understand subtraction as both difference and takeaway Understanding multiplication as describing an array Understand division as grouping and use the divide sign. Understand that division can leave some left over. Use counting in twos, fives or tens to solve practical problems involving repeated addition. Answer questions by collecting and recording data in lists and tables and representing it as block graphs and pictograms to show results. Use carroll and venn diagrams to sort numbers or objects using one criterion; begin to sort numbers and objects using two criteria; explain choices using appropriate language including not. Estimate, measure and compare lengths, weights and capacities, choosing and using suitable uniform nonstandard and standard units and appropriate measuring instruments. Compare lengths weights and capacities using the standard units: centimetres, metres, 100g kilogram and litre. Apply this knowledge to a range of contexts, scenarios and challenges through investigation. Science - making observations and measurements to answer questions. - ask questions and decide how to answer them.

5 -Food Chains Famous explorers Weather patterns around the world. Location hot and cold chains. Children to learn about explorers from the past. Children will explore different factors that explorers have to consider: Transport Navigation Survival Communication Equipment Plan an expedition by drawing on previously learnt factors. Children to present work to class and or parents. Children to think carefully about past events and how they would change in modern day. - Explore using senses to carry out observations. - Make simple comparisons and identify patterns. - Explain knowledge/results using simple scientific vocabulary. Geography Ask and respond to geographical questions (1a) Recognise, observe, describe and record physical and human features (1b) Make simple comparisons between features of different places (1c) Express their own views about people, places and their effect on environments (1c) Communicate in different ways using appropriate geographical vocabulary (1d) Use field work skills to carry out simple tasks (2b) Use globes, maps and plans (2c) Use secondary sources of information (2d) History Identify what they could have done differently or how they would improve their work in the future Place events and objects in chronological order (1a) Use common words and phrases related to the passing of time (1b) Recognise why people did things and why events happened (2a) Identify differences between past and present and ways of life at different times (2b) Identify different ways in which the past is represented (3) Observe and handle a range of sources of information to find out about the past (4a) Ask and answer questions about the past (4b)

6 Landscapes Collage Watercolours - Children will study and imitate examples to create their own landscape art using collage and watercolours. Select from their knowledge of history and communicate it in a variety of ways (5) Art and Design - Investigate and use a range of media and techniques. - Review work and suggest improvements - Record from first-hand experiences and imagination
