You can discuss the curriculum with your child
The overview for our learning this half-term is ‘Superheroes’. This will focus around three books: Look Up by Nathan Byron, Super Duper You by Sophy Henn and Super Worm by Julia Donaldson. These will help the children learn about the being super and resilient in different ways, and will also help them to learn that we all have super hero qualities, such as being super kind, super helpful, super brave, super strong and super clever! This will stimulate our circle time session around ‘why we are special and unique in our own individual way’, and we will use and say the sentence ‘I am super because ….’
Please spend a few minutes chatting with your child and ask them some simple questions such as: Do they know any Superheroes? What super hero magic would like to have and why? Who are the superheroes that help us every day? What might you like to be when you are grown up? Would you like to be an astronaut and visit space? What might you see there?
