Ordering Numbers

In maths we worked in groups to make our own number lines:

Getting Ready to Write!

In reception class we are always working on our muscles to get us ready to write.

Using our fine-motor skills to tie knots and cut the string.

Gross motor development.

Carefully tying knots.

Practising our scissor skills.

DINOSAURS!

The children decided on the topic of dinosaurs. They came up with lots of great ideas, but dinosaurs got the most votes.

We looked at how we could measure a triceratop's footprint.

The Triceratops would have been this long!

Welcome Back!

The children have come back happy and full of enthusiasm. This week we have been learning how to carefully count. They have enjoyed making potions, by counting out ingredients into the cauldron.

We have also started learning sounds in phonics and are beginning to blend sounds into words and even having a go at writing them.

Here is a link to the Jolly Phonics songs that we use to help learn the sounds: Jolly Phonics Songs

I thought I'd also add these amazing sculptures that the children made:

Noah's Iguanodon

Bethan's rabbit and centipede

Betty's creature
