Foundation 2

The Foundation 2 children will be working towards age expected statements from our assessment tracker EEXAT.  

This year is very important for your child as by the end of the year they should be able to read a simple sentence, write a simple sentence and add and takeaway.

We will be using Read, Write Inc. to learn our sounds to help us to read and write ruthmiskin.com will take you to the website and if you click on "parents" at the top you will have access to lots of information to help at home with sounds and reading.

Please help your child by counting, hunting for numbers, talking about sounds and rhyming, teaching manners, asking lots of questions and generally sharing everything you can with them.

We use a range of information to influence and inform our planning such as the needs and interests of the children, things happening in the world around us and the Early Years curriculum.  Books are at the centre of our curriculum and link our learning and planning together.  Foundation 2 will be reading the range of books listed below:
