- Space Travel – We have been learning all about Space in Reception Class. We’ve even written a list of instructions for ‘blasting off’ in our rocket. 5,4,3,2,1 – BLAST OFF!
-
- Guess Who? Reception Class have been learning all about ‘minibeasts’. We’ve learnt some new facts and looked very carefully at them. The children all chose a minibeast to paint and then wrote a clue to describe their creature. Can you guess what they are?
-
- Odds and Evens – we have been learning all about ‘odd’ and ‘even’ numbers in Maths. The children chose a shape to be the body of their alien. Odd Aliens needed to have an odd number of eyes, legs, arms or hair. Even Aliens had to have even amounts. We had great fun creating our super aliens and practising our maths too!
-
- The Rainbow Fish – In our topic on ‘Water, Water’ we listened to the wonderful story of ‘The Rainbow Fish’. We’ve talked about what makes a good friend and learnt that it is important to be kind. We then made a ‘compliment fish’ – the children all wrote a compliment for another member of our class. Our compliments made us all feel very happy. What kind children!
-
- Wow! Said the Owl – We have been reading this lovely book by Tim Hopgood. The children in Reception made their own paper bag owl puppets to help them retell the story. Twit-twooo!
-
- The children in Reception have been learning all about colour. After we read the story ‘Elmer’, a letter arrived from the colourful elephant asking the children to paint him a new patchwork. But he set them a challenge! Elmer doesn’t like two of the same colour next to each other. The children had to concentrate hard to make sure the colours were just right.
-
- Reception Class have been thinking about ‘day and night’ at school. We looked at a painting called ‘Starry Night’ by Van Gogh. The children then tried making their own versions. They mixed paint with flour and glue to make a very think mixture. Then they used forks to paint, mix and create their own starry nights.
