In writing, we will begin with finding out about the trees in which our classes are named after. We will produce a fact file to share more about our class trees. We will also be writing a narrative based on our class novel ‘Rabbit and Bear’ by Julian Gough and Jim Field. Across the phase, children will have daily phonics lessons.
