Reception Weekly Blog (16.10.20)

Date: 16th Oct 2020 @ 3:34pm

Inspired by our story of the Little Red Hen, we have learnt about what flour is made from, and how a long time ago, it was ground at a mill. We used a pestle and mortar to grind wheat grain to make flour, we watched a video clip of a working windmill, then made our own from a cardboard tube. The children have listened to different versions of the story and now love to use the role play to retell the story themselves. They have developed their scissor skills too, when cutting out and assembling their own Little Red Hen.

We have continued to explore number 3. The children have been finding ‘three’ objects amongst the natural autumn resources, practising how to write it using the rhyme: ‘around a tree, around a tree, that’s the way we make a 3’. We have introduced the cylinder and talked about how it has three faces – two flat and one curved. See if you can find some cylinders at home. We would love to hear about it on a ‘Good News’ slip.

As we continue to learn our Set 1 speed sounds, please ensure children are regularly practising the ones we have learnt so far at home. Being able to recognise the pure sound of ‘m,a,s,d,t,i,n,p,g’ will really help when we start to blend these sounds for reading. If you are unsure of the correct pronunciation of each sound take a look on the Reception page for video guidance. Many thanks for your support.

Next week we will continue to explore our farming theme through the story of ‘The Enormous Turnip’.

Have a lovely weekend 😊

to learn, to succeed, to value one another

Our vision and values are at the core of everything we do. A value is a belief or principle that guides our thinking and behaviour. Our values underpin our teaching and learning, and provide an environment which prepares our pupils to be happy and confident and to to take an active role in their community and the wider world.

Each year group has adopted one of our Christian values: Kindness, Forgiveness, Courage, Thankfulness, Hope, Faithfulness and Respect. Our over-arching Christian Value is Love. Throughout the year children are helped to explore, have opportunities to practise and then given time to reflect on what each of our Christian values means to them.
