Autumn 2
What a busy first term it’s been! We have been working extremely hard to learn our phonics sounds and practise blending. Thank you for helping the children at home with blending. In Maths, we have been learning about the composition of numbers to 5 and repeated patterns. Children have enjoyed drawing club where they have used their imagination to create adventures involving the characters from Red Riding Hood, Not Now Bernard and The Gingerbread Man. As Christmas time is here children enjoyed learning the nativity story and explored a variety of craft making using different tools and materials. They made hats, lanterns, angels, snowmen cards and twinkling stars. They worked very hard to learn all their words, songs and actions to put on the amazing Wriggly Nativity performance which everybody enjoyed.
What stars our children are!
Autumn 1
All the children have settled into Reception and are having fun and working hard. We have been very busy with our learning. We started the year by thinking about ourselves and our senses. In Maths we have been talking about patterns and our children created and extended repeating patterns. In English our children have enjoyed learning stories, rhymes and interesting vocabulary. Children have been busy learning their phonics sounds getting ready to blend words for reading. It was great to see so many of you attend our phonics open morning. Art was colourful this half term as we explored mixing Autumn colours in different ways.
