Hi Reception Families,
What a busy week we had!
We had a fantastic PE session with Mr Treble on Tuesday and really enjoy our SCARF session with Harold, our focus was on Mental Health, being resilient, and the power of the word 'Yet' reminding us that we can always try again.
In Understanding the World, we were learning about Volcanoes, I wonder if the children can remember the difference between magma and lava? We loved building volcanoes in the sandpit, creating them in make and create, drawing them, being our very own volcanoes. On Thursday we conducted a science experiment using Vinegar and Bicarbonate of Soda. The children made observations of what was happening, during the reaction. We went into the hall and used our bodies to represent a volcanic eruption.
In Expressive Art and Design, this week we introduced the artistic skill of sketching, we made observations from a photograph of a sunflower. The drawings the children made were absolutely amazing, what talented and skilled learners we have in Reception. It blew my socks off!!
In English we are exploring all things Pirate! We have loved reading The Night Pirates and this focus will continue next week.
Turning our attention to next week:
