Reception Class
Welcome to Reception's Page
Our class teacher is Mrs Adams. Our Teaching Assistants are Mrs McIlroy, Mrs Swallow and Mrs Asbach, Miss Jarmin and Miss Piscarne.
We hope you find this page useful for keeping up to date with your child's learning in Reception. We have recently updated our curriculum maps in December 2023 and look forward to some exciting learning, linked to the children's interests.
Spring term 1 2024
This half term, we have been learning about traditional tales, such as Rumpelstiltskin and Rapunzel. We enjoyed acting out the stories and adding music for dramatic effect!
We have been creative and mixed primary colours and have enjoyed finding out about castles and different types of homes.
Spring term 2
After half term, the children will continue to look at traditional tales and will be completing map work, including navigating a trip through the woods, just like Hansel and Gretel.
We will be celebrating books during World Book Day and continuing with the ELS phonics scheme.
In Maths, we will be learning about odd and even numbers, using resources such as Numicon. We will continue to work on number bonds to 5 and will begin to count verbally beyond 20. Children will have the opportunity to manipulate and use resources and play mathematical games during child initiated learning.
Summer Term One
This half term we will be celebrating spring and looking at creatures and growing things.
We will share fiction and non-fiction books on ladybirds, spiders and other types of minibeast. We will also begin growing seeds and will look for different plants and animals in the school environment.
In maths, we will explore doubling and halving and will start looking more closely at numbers 11-20 and how they can be made.
