Reception – Mother’s day celebrations!

28.03.25

Hello children, parents and carers,
The focus for this week was definitely Mothers day! We’ve been busy practicing our song, we painted number flowers and of course decorated fantastic Mother’s day cards! In our writing sessions we were thinking about why we love mummy and how we can help her at home with chores! Here is some of our writing… excellent work reception!

I really hope that you’ve enjoyed our performance. The children worked hard practicing the song and painting special Mother’s day flowers.

In Little Wandle we continued to read words ending in -ing and plurals. We are also continuing to revisit the tricky words, digraphs and trigraphs learnt so far. The children are beginning to learn how to write some long sentences like: The goat was born this morning.

In Maths we were learning to see greater numbers as a whole number and its parts at the same time. The children were encouraged to represent their different compositions of
numbers to 10 by providing varied representations to show the different compositions.
We used the stem sentence 5 is a part and 5 is a part. The whole is 10, 6 is a part and 4 is a part. The whole is 10, etc.
The children used lots visuals to support their understanding and sang various songs like ’10 Green Bottles sitting on a wall’.

And finally but not least, congratulations for all your hard work and motivation! You truly deserve the awards, red sash and golden rosette!!!

To all of you wonderful mums!!!
