Reception Blog 21st March 2025

Dear Parents,

We have been reading 'Dinosaurs and all that Rubbish'.

 

Literacy:

We have planned and written a story about the day we met a dinosaur.

 

Maths:

We have practised subtracting using the words 'less than'.

 

 

 

We have thought about how we are all unique during Neurodiversity week.

 

 

 

 

Thankyou for all the donations!

The children loved showing their colourful socks to each other for World Down Syndrome Day.

 

SSP visited us and we did a session including, jumping, throwing and aiming skills.

 

 

 

 

 

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. 

We have sent home a copy of all the sounds and how to form them correctly and a copy of all the tricky words.

Please continue to practise these. Thank you!

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.

 

Have a lovely weekend, 

From

Ms Lucas, Mrs Critchley and Mrs Gifford.
