A day filled with kindness!

admin on: Reception

14th October 2020

Today, we have continued to look at the book The Paper Dolls by Julia Donaldson

We have worked as a team to create our very own class paper doll chain! We developed our cutting and sticking skills to cut around the outline of the doll then coloured them in beautiful colours! 

As a random act of kindness, we drew pictures on pieces of wood which we then thread some string through. The children have then decided to give them to someone to make them smile! 

What a lovely bunch of children we have in Reception!

Autumn 1 week 5

admin on: Reception

Well done to all the children for being amazing. They are learning so much in all the areas of development especially when playing with other children and being kind to each other, talking about thier feeling and learning how we have to behave in school to make it a fun and positive experience. 

Here are a few highlights.

Baking bun's

Playing hide and seek in the woods.

Thank-you for your support and have a good weekend.

Little Red Hen

admin on: Reception

7th October 2020

What a busy day we have had continuing to look at The little Red Hen! 

On the painting table, we created hens using our hands! We painted our hands brown and red then pressed it down on the paper with our fingers spread out. This made the body then we added detail using yellow paint. 

On the cutting and sticking table, we used different shades of brown and red to make a collage of a hen. We used cellophane, card and tissue paper. 

In maths we were recognising and understanding the numbers 1, 2 and 3. We played different games where we had to get into different groups depending how many claps we heard and which number we saw. 

How much fun we have had subitising and making hens today!
