Reception – Busy writing!

14.10.2022

Hello children and parents!
It’s been another busy week… we were practising our Harvest song, getting ready for next Thursday and can’t wait to see you all in the morning. Please note that the time has now changed and the assembly will take place at 9:15am.
We also planted some hyacinths and daffodils and are taking a good care of them… fingers crossed that they will grow in spring.

We learned 4 new graphemes:

Please spend some time with your children practising our new graphemes. Make sure you check their school bag for a new tricky word book. In the book you will find the first three tricky words that we’ve learned.

We also began to do our first spelling words. We learned how to use our segmenting fingers and segmented CVC words. The children then had to write these words on their boards. We experimented writing on different surfaces like sand, mud, boards…. great writing Reception. Have a look at how we spelled Sam from our favourite story!

In Maths this week the children were encouraged to represent quantities in different ways by using a number of fingers on one hand. So for example four can be 3 and 1, but can also be 2 and 2. We also played a fun bingo game.

Finally, it’s been a pleasure to see all of you yesterday. Thank you for your positive comments and all the support. Please look for your activation Tapestry email!
Can’t wait to see all the fantastic home learning!!!

Looking forward seeing you all on Monday!
