This Week In Reception (WB 31.03.25)

Date: 4th Apr 2025 @ 9:57am

This week in Reception, we’ve been having an exciting and fun filled week.

In English, we explored the delightful story, We’re Going on an Egg Hunt. The children have been practicing retelling the story using key propositional language, such as "under," "behind," and "next to." They then used their creativity to draw pictures related to the story and applied their phonics knowledge to label their pictures, reinforcing both reading and writing skills.

In Maths, our focus has been on spatial reasoning, where the children used different shapes to create and explore various images. This activity helped to strengthen their understanding of shapes, position, and symmetry while developing their problem-solving skills.

In Understanding the World, we turned our attention to the beautiful daffodils that are blooming around us. The children carefully observed the flowers and created some wonderful observational art based on what they saw. We also learned about Easter and discussed why it is an important celebration for Christians. The children made Easter baskets, and to finish off the week with some fun, we had an egg hunt to celebrate!

It’s been a week filled with creativity, learning, and celebration. Have a lovely two weeks off, and we will see you after the holidays!
