Welcome to Penguins!
We have had a great start to our learning in Reception. Here is a video of us exploring the provision!
This week we are thinking about friendships, feelings and our likes and dislikes.
In Maths we are looking at sorting and matching.
We are starting our Phonics learning with Level 1 environmental sounds and rhyming games.
PE and Dance will be on TUESDAYS and FRIDAYS. The children will be expected to come to school in their PE kits on these days.
Please also send a spare set of uniform and underwear to keep in school.
Your child may bring their own bottle to school (water only!)
PLEASE NAME EVERY ITEM OF YOUR CHILD'S CLOTHING AND BELONGINGS!
Please take time to read with your child EVERY DAY - little and often is best!
Please also sign the children's diary so that they can receive stickers which lead to prizes!
Please also help us to help the children by reinforcing the sounds being taught at school. Phonics is the method by which we teach reading and writing. Here are some videos which demonstrate the correct pronunciations.
Letter and number formation
Don't forget to check Purple Mash weekly for activities related to our learning
