Reception Weekly Blog- WB 24.01.22

In Reception this week the children have continued their learning into different environments by looking at the non-fiction text 'Homes around the World'. The book has lots of different types of houses including igloos, yurts, river houses and houses on stilts. The children enjoyed using the book 'You Choose' to find their perfect house and then labelled it using their phonic knowledge. 

During continuous provision the children enjoyed using the workshop area to make the different houses from the book. Some of the children found some sugar cubes and decided to use them to make igloos, they enjoyed balancing them on top of each other. In the classroom we transformed our role play areas into travel agents and the children enjoyed role playing going on a holiday. We had lots of discussions about the different climates and looked at what we would need to pack in our suitcases if we went to a warm country or a cold country.
