Reception Phonics Drop in
We had a wonderful time at our phonics drop in. We tried lots of activities and were excited to show our grown ups what we do in our phonics sessions.
A huge thank you to all of the grown ups who could attend. We hope it will be useful in supporting you to support your children with their phonics learning.

Class 8: Martin Luther King research lesson
Today, class 8 used fact sheets to find out information about Martin Luther King and his life. We then made anchor charts and the children transferred them into sentences. I was really pleased with all of the children, but especially Adam for really trying to improve his presentation!
