This week, we read Oliver’s Vegetables. In Literacy, the children wrote a sentence to express which vegetable they like the best. We have been very impressed by their super hard work this week and they have tried hard in all aspects of their learning. They enjoyed accessing the provision linked to this week’s story; especially hammering golf tees into a watermelon, to support their fine motor skills.

This week, we read Funny Bones and discussed about how we keep our bodies healthy. In Maths, the children enjoyed applying their problem solving skills and made a square out of smaller squares. They also created a rocket out of different shapes and were challenged to name and describe their properties. In Literacy, the children have continued to learn to write recognisable letters, with some children writing their own sentences! Check out some pictures of some of the continuous provision the children had access to.

This week, we learnt about our senses and enjoyed exploring the provision. We were encouraged to: cut herbs to make our own soup; explore the smell of different spices; mix paint colours to observe what happens and much, much more! Well done Reception!
