Reception - Summer 2 - Week 1
Date: 7th Jun 2023 @ 9:31am
We hope you all had a fabulous half term and all ready for a fun packed final half term in Reception!
For RE this week we have started to think about Prayer. We began our session thinking about when we pray and prayers that we knew. We then looked at lots of different objects we may use to help us pray, such as rosary beads and holding crosses. We talked about the Lords prayer and how he taught this to his special friends ‘The Disciples’ in case they did not how to pray or what to say.
On Monday we enjoyed our first visit of the half term to ‘Forest School’, we have so much fun and just love visiting our forest school site each week. This week we spent some time exploring the changes in the environment and then went on to use some of the natural resources around us to create faces on the trees, if you pass forest school see if you can spot any of the faces!
We were very excited to start our new theme ‘Superheroes’. The role play has been turned into a superhero headquarters, where the children have had the opportunity to dress up as a superhero and think about what the role of a super hero is. The children have enjoyed thinking about what makes a superhero and if they know any superheroes? The children also enjoyed thinking about if they were a superhero what super powers would they have and why? We look forward to seeing where our learning will take us!!!
As we finished for half term our caterpillars had changed into beautiful butterflies and out tadpole had grown legs and changed into a frog. The Birds nest has four chirping chicks in and we have enjoyed watching the parents gathering food and listening carefully to chirping they make!
We wish you all a lovely weekend and continue to enjoy the sunshine!
