Reception Friday 21st June Looking back and forth
Friday 21 June 2019 - Looking Back and Forth in Reception
We are off to Reaseheath on Friday
Sports Day is on Thursday 4th July in the afternoon. Your child will need a plain T-shirt the same colour as the house they are in.
If you could encourage your child to do more cutting at home it would help us enormously. Many of them are really struggling. Just draw a few lines on a page and get them to cut along them.
Don’t forget to let us know about your children’s achievements/successes out of school. We love to hear about swimming and biking etc. successes… and house point for any writing done at home too.
Show and tell: Please encourage your child to prepare for show and tell. I always give house points for good presentations.
Looking Back
English: We have read the book “Who sank the boat” and then the children rewrote what the sequence of who got into the boat first, second etc. Their writing is really improving and they are becoming more confident and writing more.
Maths: We have looked at position and distance this week. Days of the week and ordering things. The planets were good one to order –have they sang the song to you? I found it on YOUTUBE.
PE: On Thursday the class had a dance lesson from Garcia (a student from our twin school in SA). They loved it! On Friday we started practicing for sports day.
Reception Children's highlights
The dance with Garcia, pre-school visiting this morning, running the sports day race, lunch, bikes out on Friday and the planet song.
Looking forward
Next week we are looking at subtraction and addition and our writing is based around a bus. It’s our outing to Reaseheath and Mr Few a pilot is coming in on Thursday to talk to the children.
Dates of interest:
Buddy trip on 28th June.

Reading: Please read a few times a week and you don’t have to read the books from school. 5minutes a session is more than enough.
Writing: Writing out phase 2 and 3 tricky words:
I, go,to,the,no,into,we,be,she.he,me,my,you,are.
Can they do it from memory?
Maths: counting and writing numbers.
