Half Term




This week in Reception we have been very busy! We have cut scales, out of colour mixing swatches for the Rainbow Fish display (using our cutting skills and overlapping skills), made Treasure Maps out of the PE equipment (Creative Development) and have been looking at the changes to our environment (Knowledge and Understanding of the World).










Here are some photographs of our Treasure Maps.










The first week back after half term is World Book Week and we are concentrating on Information books. We are going to be finding out about dictionaries and each class in the school will be making their own one. Don't forget to dress up as something from an information book on Thursday 3rd March.



After half term our main focus is going to be on Traditional Tales. The children will learn some Tradition Tales and use them in all areas of the curriculum in different ways. We even have a trip booked to Mill Green Museum to meet the miller and find out how to make bread, just like in the Little Red Hen!
We hope you have a restful half term!

Teddies and Friends

Thank you to all our parent helpers this week. Hope everybody enjoyed the Tea Parties.

Please remember to bring in a Soft Toy on Monday next week for our learning. They will be returned on Friday. It would be really useful if we could get a wide variety of different soft toys to use.

Have a good weekend.
