Reception - Summer 1 - Week 2

Date: 28th Apr 2022 @ 2:58pm

We have all enjoyed another busy, fun filled week in Reception!

The children have been really enjoying our class book, 'I'm going to eat this ant' and have created some wonderful food combinations for the anteater to try!  The children wore chef hats to help get them into character when writing menus for the anteater and we had some wonderful ideas, from 'Marshmallow meatball mush' to 'Peas and pepperoni pizza'!  It all sounded very delicious!!

Thank you to Anne and Caroline for our WOW service on Wednesday.  We learned about how Jesus was a good friend when he was alive and how he is now a friend to us all, helping us to be kind, understanding and considerate. 

We took our maths outdoors this week and took part in a number hunt for numbers 11-20.  The children were asked to match their pictures to the correct number and it was wonderful to see them working together, counting and reasoning.

Each child has planted a 'magic' runner bean seed this week.  We explored the seed pods and popped out the bean seeds which the children found fascinating.  It was a great opportunity to practice our counting skills too.  We can't wait to watch our beans and see how they grow over the next few weeks!

We were very lucky to have a special PE session from Ultimate Kids on Thursday.  We played the 'naughty neighbour' ball game and the children were so excited  and keen to participate.  Thank you Ultimate Kids, we loved it.

Wishing you all a lovely bank holiday weekend and we look forward to seeing you on Tuesday.
