Another fun-filled week in Reception!

A BIG thank you to all who contributed to the FOSLS bucket challenge!

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, and n’ will really help when your child starts 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, you will also find letter formation phrases for writing the sounds.

We have really enjoyed learning all about Harvest this week, and how important it is to be thankful for the food which we eat. It was lovely walking to church with our Year 4 buddies on Wednesday, they helped us walk beautifully to watch our talented Year 3 friends in their Harvest service. Hopefully, it won’t be too long before we spend some more time with our buddies.

We have been working hard this week to look at the number two, how it can be two dots on a dice, two counters on a ten frame, two hops and two claps! The children were challenged to find two objects from their classrooms this weekend and thoroughly enjoyed bringing back the treasures that they had found. If your child spots anything else ‘two’ this weekend, please take a photo and send it in to us to share with the rest of our class friends.

Have a fantastic weekend everyone. Email your ‘good news’ pictures to us using reception@slf.sefton.school to save you from printing them off.

The Reception Team :)
