Reception - This week...

Hello everyone,

We have had a very busy week in reception! On Tuesday we had a joint morning with the pre-school children. The reception children took part brilliantly and took on board the responsibility of helping other children. It is remarkable to see how much change can occur in a year! During the morning we had a good try of some Chinese food (everyone now knows what crispy seaweed is!), we made some Chinese lanterns and played some games from China outside! Overall, a successful morning!
Tomorrow we are going to be carrying out our first 'Big Write'. We have been working with the children all week on giving them the strategies to be successful, thank you for any discussions you have had at home with your child about their Dragon! Some brilliant vocabulary coming out.
Also this week, the children have been introduce to Reading Eggs. This is a wonderful online resource that all children can use. The children will be bringing home their log-in soon for you to use at home! We have had a discussion in school about e-safety and how we can keep safe online. As well as this we have spoken about how much time should be spent on a device and what can happen if you spend too long playing games!

Finally, we are desperately hoping that the sound pots will be ready to take home tomorrow. Mrs. Howell is hurrying to finish them all off. If they are ready for tomorrow, we will put them into your child's bookbag.
