Our last full week

Today marks the end of our last full week in Reception. Where has the time gone?

We began our week with a fantastic sports day. The boys showed great sportsmanship and determination in each activity. Please see photos below:

In Maths we revisited learning about 2D and 3D shapes. The boys have been shape experts describing shape properties, including faces, edges and corners to their friends:

During literacy the boys wrote an independent piece of writing to show to their year 1 teachers. They are very keen to showcase what they can do.

In Expressive Arts and Design the boys experimented again with colour mixing. They drew a transport stencil and then painted it with the colour they had mixed:

Here are some of the boys playing outside during Explore and Learn time:

The starboys for next week are as follows:

Monday: Udodi

Have a lovely weekend!

‘The Journey’

The boys began their week performing their play ‘The Journey’. They worked very hard preparing for this and we hope you all enjoyed watching it.

We have recently been talking about the changes that happen at this time of year and reflecting on our year in reception. The boys wrote a piece of writing summarising what they have enjoyed in reception and what they are looking forward to in year one. They were excited to visit their new class on Wednesday and their new teachers are delighted to have such a lovely class.

Thank you very much for attending the parent consultations this week. It has been wonderful sharing your son’s progress.

Maths homework:

This week in maths we have explored different maths vocabulary. For this weeks maths activity, could you please practise using the terms ‘more’, ‘less’, ‘between’ and finding the ‘difference’. E.g. 5 more than 7, 3 less than 10, find a number between 15 and 25 and find the difference between 7 and 11. Please comment on this blog post to share what you have done at home. Have fun!

 

The starboys for next week are as follows:

Monday: Jai and Jamie

Tuesday: Jude and Louis

Wednesday: Mateo and Max

Thursday: Rhys and Rory

Friday: Rufus and Sahil

 

Have a lovely weekend!
