Welcome to Reception

Our topic for this half term is Winter / Christmas.

We have started our learning with Bonfire night and basing our work on fireworks. The children have made some lovely artwork, firework mark making and generated lots of fabulous language to create a class poem.

This week in Reception: Week beginning 11th November

In Literacy, we will be working really hard on our handwriting, learning the letters i, l and t, and easy words that contain them.

In addition, we will read our new class book Owl Babies. The children will go into our woods and explore the habitat using their senses, sequence keys events in the story, and generate and write simple sentences using the phonic knowledge.

In Maths, we will ask the children to look at different ways of sorting objects, people, etc. The children will look at how things are sorted and come up with their own ways of sorting objects into sets.

In Phonics, we will introduce the sounds r and ss, as well as lots of blending practice on all the phase 2 sounds we have learnt so far.

Class Ra will have PE (gymnastics) on Tuesday and Class R will have PE (gymnastics) on Wednesday.
