Last week, we continued to focus on the story of ‘Little Red Riding Hood’. We discovered paw prints in our classroom and thought they might belong to the big, bad wolf. We created wanted posters to find the wolf and made traps. The children enjoyed sticking their posters up around the classroom for others to see.
In nursery, we have started to learn our set 1 phonics sounds. We follow the Read Write Inc. scheme for phonics. In RWI, each sound has a picture card and a rhyme to help write the sound. Your child will be familiar with letter names from learning the alphabet song. In phonics lessons we talk about the sound and the rhyme to help us write that sound. In nursery, we will be focusing on the children pronouncing the sound correctly. The children will be given opportunities to mark make and form the sound throughout their play e.g. painting in glitter, writing with chalk, forming the sound with loose items.
Clear pronunciation of sounds is extremely important. This video will demonstrate how to say sounds clearly.
This week, we have enjoyed looking at the story of ‘Little Red Riding Hood’. We made baskets, explored red paint and looked for red objects outside. We have also started our RWI phonics and learnt how to say ‘m’ and ‘s’
Last week, the children in nursery enjoyed the story ‘Supertato’. We made traps for the evil pea, created our own supertato and explored printing with vegetables.
Last term Reception were excited to be able to visit the Outdoor Classroom for the first time. We walked carefully with our partner, listened to a story and then made a bird feeder. The children all behaved brilliantly and thank you so much to all the parent volunteers who made it happen.
Here is the home learning sheet for the week beginning the 4th of January. We understand that there have been some technical difficulties with Tapestry which is related to the demand on the website, this is not due to your individual account or the school. We apologise for any issues that this may cause. We hope access to this sheet will allow you to continue with any home learning.
