Hi Reception families,
This week we have been focussing on our bodies and the children's classic Funny Bones following on from our learning about staying healthy last week.
We have made junk model bodies and skeleton pictures, it was wonderful to see the children using their knowledge about the human body in their creative work!
In maths we have been learning about changes within 5 and have been exploring how using a part-whole model can help us find the total all together.
We have had a wonderful time building towns for the skeletons in Funny Bones to explore.
In PE we have focussed on our throwing and catching skills.
We were really impressed with children's effort for Bling you Bike on Thursday.
On Friday we had a special visitor from the Ambulance Service. The children really enjoyed learning about the ambulance and how paramedics help people in our community. A very special thank you for Andy for his time with us today!
Turning our attention to next week:
Drawing Club: We're going on a bear hunt.
Powermaths: Changes within 5
Understanding the world: Teddy Bears from the past and Bears from around the world.
I am thrilled to tell you that on Thursday 24th November we will be visiting Maiden Castle Farm. I will give further details at the beginning of next week!
General Notices:
Reading Records and Books to Love.
Thank you for all the returned reading records and books, it was lovely to see all the wonderful reading children are experiencing at home. Please return your reading records and Books to Love every Friday and the children can choose another book. The reading records are not just limited to the books the children borrow, you could jot down any other stories that children are having!
PE
We will continue to come to school dressed in our PE kit on Tuesdays next week, please do dress children in jogging bottoms or leggings to ensure they are warm enough throughout the day.
The children brought home an activity related to our visit today, if they return them when completed we will pass them onto the Ambulance Service. (Please make sure they are named)
Until Monday Reception
Ms Evans and the Reception Team
