Hello all,
As Autumn approaches, we are looking at some of the changes that are starting to take place in the environment.
This week our focus story in Reception was Little Red Riding Hood. The children used props to act out the story which was lots of fun . We have also begun learning the songs related to the story.
The children are now becoming familiar with all the routines of the week and they are beginning to become independent in accessing their learning. We will be supporting them with this over the coming weeks.
Phonics
This week we have begun learning phonics . The children were introduced to the letter sounds: s, a, t, p. We have been identifying initial sounds in words and have practised oral blending.
Maths
In Math, we have been counting objects with one to one correspondence. The children used acorns and conkers for counting activities. If you are out for a walk with your children, please collect some natural resources for play and maths activities such as conkers, pinecones, acorns, leaves and bring them to school.
We would also appreciate if you could bring some boxes from your recycling bin for junk modelling. The children are very creative and would love to turn the boxes into robots, mobile phones and other objects to support their play.
Have a great weekend!
Mrs Sheehan
