In Autumn term Years 1, 3 and 5 will explore the topic of ‘Team’ (Together Everyone Achieves More).

Year 1 

This unit is inspired by the idea that if a team works well together, it has a positive impact on all of its members and what they can achieve. It aims to enable the children to develop successful collaborative working skills, such as good listening. Year 1 children will learn about the importance of being kind to others, the effects of bullying and teasing and what to do about it if it happens to them or they see it happening to others. They will also think about effective learning
skills and how to identify good and not-so-good choices.

 

Home Learning Activities

Help children further their understanding of the social and emotional benefits of good teamwork and show them that this reaches far beyond the classroom by enjoying these activities at home together.

Year 3 

This unit is inspired by the idea that if a class team works well together, it has a positive impact on all of its members and what they can achieve. It aims to enable the children to identify the impact their actions have on the team they are working in. Children will learn about successful teamwork skills, being considerate of others in the team and how to positively resolve any conflicts that occur. They will also learn about their individual responsibilities towards teams they work in and how new starts, such as starting a new school year, may feel and how they can support each other in this.
