Objectives

Early Learning Goals

  • Know about similarities and differences in relation to places, objects, materials and living things. Talk about the features of the immediate environment and how environments might vary from one another.
  • Use phonic knowledge to write words in ways which match the spoken sounds. Also write some irregular common words. Write simple sentences which can be read by themselves and others. Some words are spelt correctly and others are phonetically plausible.
  • Learn about media and materials in original ways, thinking about uses and purposes. Represent own ideas, thoughts and feelings through design and technology, art, music, dance, role-play and stories.
  • Show good control and co-ordination in large and small movements. Move confidently in a range of ways, safely negotiating space. Handle equipment and tools effectively, including pencils for writing.
