Rhyme Time Challenge - Autumn 2
Autumn One 2024
Our new environment
The children have settled in beautifully this week and are thoroughly enjoying being in Reception. They have been exploring their new classroom and learning lots of new routines. Their behaviour has been excellent. Well done everyone! What a super first week!
Me and My World
This half term as part of this wonderful topic we read a variety of themed stories including Incredible Me and Super Duper You. The children have been learning about their bodies, families, being healthy, their emotions and where they live. The reception children loved looking at google earth and drawing maps of where we live.
Our school library
Reception now visit our school library each week. They have been choosing books independently and reading and looking at them with their friends. We have been teaching the children how a library works and the children are choosing a new library book to take home each week to share with their family.
Autumn Two 2024
Maths
We've been super busy in maths this term learning about matching objects, numbers and amounts. We've been counting objects, actions and sounds and we've been learning lots about the numbers 1 to 5 and how we can represent these numbers in different ways. The reception children have also been developing their vocabulary of size and ordering objects by size.
Super star maths! Well done guys!
Sparkle and Shine
Reception have loved our Autumn two topic ‘Sparkle & Shine’ this half term. We’ve enjoyed learning all about Diwali, bonfire night, birthdays and Christmas. We feel that the children especially loved learning about Diwali by creating diva lamps, dancing to Diwali music and tasting some Indian party food. We’ve enjoyed celebrating and learning together. Well done everyone, we can’t wait to learn more next half term.
Christmas
The children have been learning about Advent and what this word means by preparing our classroom and getting ready for Jesus' birthday. The children performed their first nativity, The Wriggly Nativity and they were all wonderful! We've been listening to lots of Christmas stories and we wrote a letter to Santa then posted them at the post box. It is definitely our favourite time of the year in reception and we hope that you all have a magical Christmas at home with your families.
