F2 Literacy
Jack and the Beanstalk
Jack and the Beanstalk is one of our favourite stories.
We used the puppets to tell the story and pretended to be the characters. We wondered what we might find at the top of our beanstalk.

Talking Animals
We have been looking at speech bubbles in some of our reading books and decided we’d make some for our animal friends in class. We listened carefully to what they said and wrote it down on speech bubbles.

First, Next, Then and FinallyIn literacy we are learning recognise and use the words ‘first’, ‘next’, ‘then’ and ‘finally.’
We often see these words on the workstation when we are following instructions, and we use them in stories to help us join sentences. |
Learning to Write
We know that learning to write is a really important part of communicating with others, and we have made huge progress in F2 learning our letters and sounds. We have used our new skills to create notices for the wolf in the three pigs and, write speech bubbles for the gingerbread man. We do regular gross and fine motor activities with strengthen our muscles and help our bodies get ready to write. |

Persevering
We have been learning to use an outline which can sometimes be a little tricky. But, in F2 we work at persevering even when we find things really difficult.
Story time with Mark
F2 had a special treat in November. The story teller, Mark, from Lakeside Arts came to visit our school to tell us his own special version of The Gingerbread Man.
All the children enjoyed joining in with the repetitive phrases and even suggested some ideas for the story. It was so much fun! We enjoyed this so much that our teachers are organising more story telling in the New Year and hope to be able to invite parents and carers to join us. |
