Happy World Book Day from Reception!

We have had a brilliant day today dressing up for World Book Day. We have read lots of stories, done a book scavenger hunt and even had a go at making our own mini books! We hope your child has had a wonderful day and enjoys telling you about all the exciting things we have done.

 

Pancake day!

Yesterday we had a brilliant time cooking and then eating pancakes. Those of us who’d had them for tea shared their favourite toppings and then we chose what we wanted on our pancake and tried them. It was fab!

Stir fry cooking!

This week in Reception, we have been learning all about Chinese New Year and have cooked stir fry as part of our activities. All of the children gave it a sniff, most tried it and lots ate it all up and said it was lovely!

Planting!

Thank you so much to Mrs Humphries who has planted our plants. We are very excited to watch them grow and have talked in school about our schools value of respect and making sure we all look after our plants.

Spring 1 topic – Winter

This half term, we will be looking at Winter. We will be thinking about what it is like during the season of Winter, how we can keep warm, looking at seasonal changes and what it is like for animals during this season. We will also be doing some lovely winter art including junk modelling – making igloos, making light and dark pictures, mixing colours to create wintery scenes and singing winter songs.
Hopefully it will get a bit colder and maybe we might even have some snow to explore and play in!

Encourage your child to talk about what they have been learning in school. We share lots of the lovely things we have been doing in school on Tapestry and on the website. It would be lovely to see some of the fantastic things you have been doing at home too!

Well done to the children who have submitted their projects on the year 5 email. We only received 4 contributions so it makes these children’s efforts all the more impressive!

We have already shared Ruby and Mason’s work but would like to show you what Evie and Szabina have sent too.

Literacy work – week beginning 13th July!

This is the last week of our home learning journey together! We really hope you have enjoyed the activities and have learnt lots!

For our final activities together, we would love you to complete some of the grammar or writing activities on the ‘Natural curriculum’ website.

These are linked to lots of BBC natural history clips and cover lots of different grammar and writing activities!

Have a little explore but we thought the Orca’s activity looked interesting in the School closure home learning area of the website.
