Settling into Reception

Throughout the week, the boys have been practising writing their names in cursive script. The boys then recognised and practised writing the sounds s and a and drew pictures. We were very impressed with the words they thought of beginning with these sounds. Please do practise writing in cursive script using the laminated sound sheet and word books.

In Maths, we have started to practise forming our numbers, remembering that every number starts from the top. We also sorted objects by colour, shape, size and function.

Below is a Math game you can do at home involving matching and counting:

During Understanding the World, the boys enjoyed learning about the five senses we have. We talked about the parts of the body we use our senses for and then did a great cutting and sticking activity.

Here are some pictures of child-initiated play this week:

  1. Jett-Louis enjoyed matching the ladybirds to leaves 1-10, counting spots and putting spots on the ladybird. His favourite one was counting the spots on the ladybird.
