Reception

We would like to wish you all a Happy Easter. 

Thank you for all of your wonderful work you have been sending to us over the last two weeks.  We are giving you a few ideas if you wish to do some Easter activities with your child.

This document has lots of different fun ways to practise spellings. Lots of these we have already tried in classes, and lots are new! Please try to practise spellings, or the Reception 'Common Exception Words' daily. Days of the week and number names will also be useful to practise. 

We have put together a list of 6 super podcasts. You can listen on apple music, spotify or any other podcast service - for free! 

We would like Reception to...

• Listen to the 'Bedtime Explorers' podcasts. Follow one of the meditative stories. When it finishes - can you re-tell the story in order? Then, draw a story map with pictures of the main characters and events, using arrows to show the order of the story.

Foundation Stage

Autumn Term

It has been a busy start to the year in Reception, the children and adults are busy getting to know one another.

So far, we have celebrated European Language day where we learnt a few French words, counted in French up to ten and tasted cheese and croissants. We went to the KS2 hall and took part in the Harvest festival with years 1 and 2.

We made hedgehogs using potatoes and cocktail sticks. We have read about the Owl Babies and The Scarecrow’s Wedding. Mrs Parker came to help us make chocolate nests and we are looking forward to making scarecrows on Friday 18th October.

Last week Warwick Bear visited with Louise and taught us all about road safety. Christmas is fast approaching and we are starting to learn our songs and parts for our Christmas play.
