Reception 28.02.2025

Date: 25th Feb 2025 @ 11:38am

Dear Parents,

 

Our stories this week have been 'Dinosaur Roar' and 'Dinosaurs Galore'. We collected lots of adjectives from the books.

 

Literacy:

We chose a Dinosaur to describe from the book. 

 

 

Maths:

We have discussed the properties of 2d and 3d shapes. 

 

 

 

This weeks lollystick challenges:

Our lollystick challenges have included exploring our very own Dinosaur World in our outdoor area, looking at dinosaur fossil pictures in the curiosity cube and independently completing an interactive game about 2d shapes on the interactive white board.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Phonics/Dinosaur Stay ande Play!

A huge thankyou for making our first session so successful! The children loved sharing their classroom and work with you.

Phonics Homework

Please find the weekly sheets for this half term in the files section at the bottom of this blog.  Use the sheet however it works for you. Some people may want to print it out or just use the information to say the phoneme, write the grapheme and play games thinking about things that start with that sound. 

PLEASE continue to practise the new sounds each week with your child. 

Show and Tell

Your child can bring in anything linked to our topic of Dinosaurs!

 

Reading Books

 Please ensure they are sent in every day as we do have reading helpers who can also listen to child in School. The ideal is a little time spent every night looking at the book together and enjoying it! 

 

Library Books

Library books will be coming home tonight.

Please return by Wednesday each week ready to be changed on Friday.

 

Reminders

- Please make sure hair is tied up for PE (Tuesdays and Thursdays).

- Please help your child to practise zipping up their own coat, now the weather is getting colder and wetter.

- Please ensure all your child's clothes are named. Could you also check that you haven't ended up with anybody elses clothes as we still have a couple of cardigans missing!

- If your child needs to use lip balm could you please send it in in a named bag for the teachers to look after and oversee them putting it on.

 

Next week is Science Week and our KS1 Trip.

We can't wait...

Have a lovely weekend, 

From

Ms Lucas, Mrs Critchley and Mrs Gifford.
