Another very busy and amazing week in Reception. We had a visit from Mr O who was showing us some instruments, using rhythm and music. The creativity is fabulous! Amazing team work and lots of imagination. We have been using our maths skills in lots of our planning time and the independent writing has blown us away. The sunny weather is definitely helping as we can be outside working together ❤️⭐️
What a busy time we have had in Reception. Some amazing creations, writing and maths using our first, then, now language. Great collaborations, exploring and fun in the sun ❤️
We had a lovely morning with Reception parents earlier in the week. We showed them some of our Maths and English skills and how we use these skills through our groups sessions and through our play. I think everyone was so impressed at our growing independence!
Reverend Ian came to visit us this morning. We talked about a story from the bible about Jesus and some of his friends. They were in the boat and there was a storm. His friends were very frightened. We talked about things that make us feel frightened. The children suggested some ideas such as exams, starting a new school etc. We then talked about what we could do if we feel frightened. The children had some great ideas such as tell a teacher, grandparents, family or a trusted adult. We then sang a song with him and our friends.
Reception have been very busy enjoying the fabulous sunny weather! They have also made some fabulous Easter craft!
We had a visit this morning from Reverend Ian who is based at St. John’s church. He talked about how it is Mother’s Day this weekend. We discussed how mams, nanas , carers and important women are so special in our lives. The children then gave examples of how they are helped from our special people. We then sang a song ❤️
Reception have been showing off their independent reading, writing and maths skills. We have been reading words, hunting for them outside and writing sentences. We are using skittles, counters and objects to investigate number bonds of 10. We have decorated pots and then sprinkled cress seeds in to make cress heads. We talked about what the seeds need so that they will grow. We have some new additions to Reception. Everyone was so excited to see the frogspawn. We will be investigating how they change, grow and how we can look after them.
Reception had a fabulous World Book Day! We dressed up as lots of our favourite characters and made some amazing story boxes We had an amazing time exploring all of our activities.
What a fabulous couple of hours we all had yesterday! L:ots of our children’s adults came to our stay and play. We are so proud of how Reception children have progressed socially and academically and letting them show everyone these fabulous skills was a pleasure.
