We have been very busy in Reception this week! We have been learning how to count and order numbers from 11-20, and also sat in small groups to play dominoes… so much fun!
We are already writing words independently with the sounds we already know : s-a-t-p-i-n-m-d. Well done children for all your hard work!!
Today children wore special clothes in school to raise money for children in need. We danced to the “true colours” song and learnt how important is to accept and help children who are in need.
This week we have started Phase 2 in phonics, so children are learning how to write and read s-a-t-p letters, well done!
We also have been focusing again in substracting. We played a game where we pretended to be on a bus: as people were getting off, we had to count how many were left… so much fun 🙂
To improve our fine & gross motor skills, we are trying to go everyday to Mary’s garden and children are enjoying climbing up and down and also improving their balance.
Thank you parents for all your support at home with the homework.
This week we have been learning about Remembrance Day, we spoke about the poppy and what this means. We had a go decorating our poppies- we finger painted and stuck tissue paper on our poppies. We also had a 2 minute silence at 11am.
Children are getting very good at writing High Frequency words independently. Please, keep encouraging your child to memorize and write them at home.
In Maths, children were able to draw different kind of shapes: rectangles, triangles, squares, pentagons,… good work Reception children! And again, thank you parents for your support at home every week with the homework and reading books.
Below is the homework for year two.
