This week we are reading the story ‘Aaarrgghh spider!’ The story is about a lonely spider that just wants to be a family pet. This week we will be learning the story through role play and sequencing because on Thursday we will be writing our own version of the story. Ask your child to tell you the story as they have especially enjoyed shouting Aaarrgghh spider!

Our Copthorne Curriculum topic for this half term is ‘Through the Keyhole’, we will be looking at houses and homes in our local area and comparing them with those in The Netherlands. As our focus country is ‘The Netherlands’ we will also be carrying out a range of activities to do with this such as artwork which imitates the style of Vincent van Gough. Do you know any facts about The Netherlands?
