All are welcome

We hope you’ve enjoyed your summer and we’re looking forward to welcoming both familiar and new faces on Monday.

In Foundation stage, the adults are very excited to be meeting all the new Reception children and parents. The Reception teachers have recorded a story so that you can watch it with your children to familiarise them with our faces.

Enjoy your last few days off.

 

 

Tricky words

In reception, we learn to write by learning the letters and writing the sounds we can ‘hear’ in a word e.g. h   a   t

We also learn how to spell and read tricky words. These are words that can’t be sounded out or have sounds we haven’t learnt yet.

The first ones are here-this is a song we sing in letters and sounds.  Phase 2 word song

I

we then look at these ones. Phase 3 word song

Mental health week.

As part of our discussion on mental health, today we read ‘My big shouting day’ for story time. We talked about feeling cross or sad and then discussed how it’s ok to be sad but that if you do want to make yourself feel better you could

-go for a walk

-play with your favourite toy

-dance

-skip

-sing a song

-cuddle a pet

The children came up with these ideas on their own.

Well done Reception.

Active Friday!

Reception have had a super afternoon being active.

We have run and walked around the running track to improve our resilience and stamina. We have also been stretching our muscles, balancing and increasing our flexibility  by passing bean bags to each other using 2 hands.

Thank you to those who sent their children in PE kits today.

Apologies to those who didn’t get the message.

Next Friday ( 15th May ) is pyjama day so they won’t need to come in PE kits.

Have a lovely weekend.

From all the Reception team.
