Week 4: Gentle Hands, Assembly and More!

This week in Reception we continued with our learning and made some fantastic progress! 

In Maths, we worked with numbers 0-5 and children counted different sets of objects in order to match them to the correct numerals. Next week, we will begin learning names of 2D 'flat' shapes and mathematical terms to describe them. 

In English, we focused on the sounds /ck/, /e/ and /u/ and children had the very challenging task of hearing initial, middle and ending sounds. We are improving well and will spend next week reviewing all the sounds we have learnt so far this year. Next week, we will try to segment and blend sounds in words...perhaps we will even begin to read some CVC words! 

In Topic, we held our very first Reception Assembly and children were so brave and confident! Every single child in Reception stood proud and used their loud voices to speak about their new class using a microphone. We will be practising this skill throughout the year and develop our confidence in time for the Early Years Nativity!

In PSHE, we discussed kindness and talked about being gentle with our hands. We practised spreading kindness and talked about ways to express our emotions without aggression. It was a very successful lesson.

We wish you a wonderful weekend and can't wait to have parents with us next week :)
