Reception - Back to School!

Date: 12th Jan 2018 @ 4:54pm

We have had a very busy and exciting first week back. We hope you have all had a well rested and exciting Christmas break.

This week in Reception, we have been learning about different celebrations around the world. We have compared how we celebrate to different religions and have discussed our thoughts. We have had a lot of fun learning about Hanukkah and how it is celebrated. We even got to go into the woods and build a Jewish Temple!  Ask me about the special candle and see if I can remember it's name.

This week, we have shared our holiday news with each other and talked about what we have been up to.

We then went on to learn about rhyme, using the rhyming book, ‘Oi Frog’ to segment and write simple words. It was a lot of fun and we even changed some of the characters, having thought about what will rhyme.

In maths this week, we explored addition through practical activities and we started to record addition sentences. The adults were very impressed with the work going on!

We hope you all have a lovely weekend.

Mrs Jobber and Miss Partington
