 Friday 23rd May

This week in Reception has been so exciting! All of our eggs hatched into ducklings. The children have loved observing them, holding them and helping to look after them.

We have been developing our Understanding the World (Science) learning, making careful observations and using our words to describe and write about what we can see.  We hope that your child has enjoyed the experience and told you all about it!

Phonics

This week in phonics, we have been revising all the phase 2 and phase 3 sounds we have learnt so far.

This week's sounds are ai, ee, igh and oa.

We have also been revising all of the phase 2 and phase 3 tricky words.

Maths

This week, we have revisited the concept of 'comparison'.  The children have thought carefully about where numbers to 10 are in relation to each other thinking carefully about which is more or less.

We have used the language 'more than', 'fewer than' (for countable objects), 'less than' (for positions on a number line) and 'equal to' to describe the relationship between numbers.

The children have been asked to make their own number track using digit cards.

 

We have also encouraged the children to play number track game such as snakes and ladders and hopscotch.

You may like to play some of these games at home.

Thankyou for your support.
