Reception writing

I have been super impressed with our budding writers this week. We have had story maps, writing in provision, writing outside and so many more opportunities for our children to practise their developing skills.

Keep up the great work everyone!

Reception Phonics

22nd November 2024Amanda Wallace

This week in Phonics we have been covering the following sounds. The sounds will be sent out for the children to be practising to recognise the phoneme, say the phoneme and then write the grapheme.

The children are really starting to learn and retain those sounds but will need support to blend those sounds together. Have a go at the green words and the more they hear those sounds being blended the easier it will become. There is a sentence to read on the bottom of the sheet also. Reading this and also reading the reading books that the children now have will all help to increase and improve the children’s fluency in their reading.

Thanks

Mrs Wallace and Mrs Jones.

A huge well done to our year 1 and 2 superstars this week. We have celebrated stewards, HOWL point winners, numbots and TT rockstars winners, as well as Crew Stone being our attendance champions again this week!

Well done to all of our children who received reading certificates this week too, it was great to see so many children achieving their 30 reads at home…please keep going with this…it really does make a difference!

I also need to mention our crew champions this week who deserved their awards so much. I love hearing all about the fantastic things you have been up to every week.

Thanks so much to all of the parents too for coming, it was lovely to see you in school and get to know you!
