Reception parents and children took part in a phonics workshop this afternoon. We focussed on how to support the children when reading together at home.
Reception listened to Monkey’s Sandwich today on their visit to Blaydon Library. They then enjoyed a treasure hunt, searching for the different food monkey stole, and then designed their own sandwich.
Last half term, Reception had lots of fun exploring our ‘ticket to ride’ topic. We looked at transport, places we have been, where we live and other contrasting countries. The children also produced some marvellous maps, using the book ‘Martha Maps it Out’ to inspire us.
Reception thoroughly enjoyed their gymnastics sessions with Grass Roots last half term. They learnt lots of new skills and made fantastic progress with a variety of rolls and balances, as the weeks progressed.
