Well done Reception!

A massive well done to Ash and Beech for a fantastic year! All the children have come along in leaps and bounds since the start of the year. They have all made amazing progress in their phonics, reading, writing, and maths and are continuing to gain confidence in all areas of learning!

Wishing you all the best of luck in your preparation for year 1!

Have a lovely summer break!

- The Reception team 

Moving up

We have continued to think about the skills we have developed this year, and how we hope to develop and refine these even more in year 1!

We have spent time discussing what we have enjoyed in Reception- from the outdoor area, to the roleplay, to using our phonics skills to write stories! 

Phonics and Maths

We have been continuing reading phase 4 captions and writing sentences to match pictures.

We have practised our tricky words daily.

This week the children have completed and published their versions of the 'Gingerbread man' (with a twist)!

In maths we have securing our knowledge of number bonds to 5- revisiting the speckled frogs in the pool!

Your child will be bringing home a 'summer diary' please see the accompanying letter for details.

Home learning 10th July

Phonics - The children have now learnt all Phase 2, 3 & 4 tricky words. These have been sent home across the year as the children have learnt them. Please continue to ensure you practice these alongside your child's reading book. Your child needs to be able to recognise these in their books by sight and when shown the flashcard. 

Please review previous phonics homeworks- supporting your child to close any gaps within the phase they are currently working in.
