This Week In Reception (WB 24.03.25)
Date: 27th Mar 2025 @ 9:58am
In Reception this week, we've been busy exploring a range of exciting topics across English, Maths, and even special celebrations!
In English, we had a delightful time reading the book Monkey Puzzle. The children were introduced to various jungle animals, and they used sentence stems like "It has..." and "It is..." to describe the different creatures. It was a wonderful way for them to practice describing features and expand their vocabulary!
In Maths, we focused on spatial reasoning and the composition and decomposition of shapes. The children explored how small and large shapes, such as triangles and rectangles, can be combined using lolly sticks to create new shapes and objects, like houses. It was a fantastic way to enhance their understanding of shape properties and build their problem-solving skills.
We've also been learning about the jungle and the diverse animals that live there. This included fun activities and discussions around jungle life, sparking lots of curiosity and excitement!
In celebration of Mother's Day, the children made beautiful handmade cards to express their love and appreciation. They worked hard to create something special, and it was heartwarming to see their creativity shine.
Lastly, we explored the significance of Eid and took part in a fun baking activity, making delicious biscuits to celebrate.
What a fantastic week of learning in Reception! We're looking forward to more adventures next week!
