Home Learning

Here are some ideas to help your children at home...

Top Tip

Our top tip this week - when walking to school or to the park, talk about the different features you can see. Where is the sky? Where is the grass? Where is the bark on a tree? Where is land? Where is water?
 

Phonics 

We use Little Wandle for Phonics. Have a look at the grapheme chart.

Here is how we write our letters at Cherry Fold. Please help your children with the correct letter formation at home.

How our curriculum looks...

We use Development Matters to support our curriculum, this is alongside all statutory elements of the EYFS. We base our provision on common play behaviours and we ensure progression from Nursery to the end of Reception. To support this progression we have a vocabulary and skills progression document. All of these feed into our weekly planning, alongside our ongoing assessment of children's progress, next steps and interests. We use Little Wandle for our phonics curriculum. We use Red Rose Mastery Maths and NCETM for our mathematics curriculum. Please ask if you would like to see these planning documents.
