This week the children have been working on phonics sounds, you will receive phonics sheets in the book bags, which you can use at home to help build on phonics knowledge. We have also been counting very carefully, touching each item as we count, looking at how we can then split our numbers in to groups and what we notice, as well as looking at the size of various objects and ordering the size.
Reading books have started to come home, presently we are sending two books, please enjoy these books with your children at home, these books live in book bags, so we can also read with the children at school. Record when your child has read in the reading record book.
This week the children have started to look at phonics, we have been looking at s, a, t, and p, see if your children can find things starting with these sounds.
We have also decided on what would be good class rules to help make a brilliant classroom for learning.
Our maths started this week, we have been comparing objects, finding matching items and groups.
Our Reception children have been very busy getting to know their new friends, just look at those happy faces.
Please ask your child about their "observing goggles?" The children used their careful observing skills to find lots of circles in their environment. They also drew LOTS of circles using chalk, we talked about the different sizes of circles.
