Reception Wednesday 22nd January 2020


Good evening!

It was wonderful to be able to go into school this afternoon and spend time with the children showing me all their learning. We were counting down the days until I can come back!!!!!!!

Continuing with our learning about our blue planet, we used the Julia Donaldson story - The Snail and the Whale to inspire our learning. The children created "Save the Whale" posters and wrote letters to the fireman, they also developed descriptive language by writing adjectives to describe the whale and the snail - massive, colossal, gigantic, teeny, small, tiny. They also enjoyed thinking of and writing speech bubbles to accompany pictures from the story.

This week, in Power Maths, we are working on Unit 7 week 3 - please look for week 3 in your booklet for Friday's homelearning.

All RWInc reading books will be changed on Friday so please can you place them, along with their red or blue exercise book, in the basket on the table as you come in in the morning - thank you!

In preparation for our guest storyteller in a couple of weeks time, we have been practising ourselves! A HUUUUUUGGGEEEE well done to Sennen, Charlotte, Mia, Alek, Dylan and Georgia who have been our guest storytellers so far. They have thoroughly enjoyed the chance to share their favourite stories with the class using story teller voices and amazing confidence. The children will let you know if it is their turn to bring a story in.

The children are already reaping the benefits of our small world area, using their imaginations and rich dialogue as well as developing their vocabulary.

This Friday we will be making tuna fish cakes, so if your child has a fish allergy, please see one of the team before Friday.

...........and Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Cura!
