Reception - Spring 2 - Week 5
Date: 24th Mar 2022 @ 8:56pm
What a sunny week we have enjoyed in Reception.
We have loved the arrival of some warm spring sunshine this week, enjoying plenty of time outdoors, listening to stories and even doing some of our work.
We celebrated World Poetry Day on Monday, reading poems and listening to rhyming stories. We have also seen some fantastic writing throughout the week in our Garden Centre and construction area as well as in our newly created Story Station.
The children had a wonderful Tuesday afternoon. At Music in Unison we had some children performing solos with their glockenspiels. At Forest School the children worked together to design and build dens and were so proud of what they created! Thank you Tara and Mrs Bevin for the best afternoon!
On Thursday we welcomed Caroline for Godly Play where the children continued their learning about the Easter Story. Thank you for coming Caroline and we will see you next week for our Easter WOW Service!
In our literacy learning we have asked the children to use role play to act out our story, Silly Doggy. They showed great understanding of the story and their acting skills were very impressive.
We introduced number bonds to 10 in our maths learning this week. The children have been using their fingers, numicon and 10 frames to help them see how 10 can be made and are already keen to apply this knowledge. We have seen some fantastic number sentences being written independently with the children showing great pride in their work.
Today we welcomed Mummys, Grandmas and Nanas into school for our Mother's Day Celebration. The children were so excited to perform the songs which they have been rehearsing and it was a perfect way to show how special our mummys and grandmas are, along with the presentation of a tulip and a personal message from each of the children. I was blown away by how the children performed and have worked so hard to make their singing and actions the best they could be for our special guests. Thank you to all of you who were able to attend.
Have a lovely weekend and we look forward to seeing you on Monday.
