Nursery phonics letters

This week we are focusing on letters x, y and z.

Encourage your child to spot these letters in books and in their environment. Can they say the letter name and phonetic sound? Can they write the grapheme?

Reception maths

This week we have been focussing on number bonds to 10 in our maths learning. We have been showing these in different ways and the children were using the knowledge that they already had to help them.

We tried it in as many ways as we could. Well done Class 3, we are definitely maths superstars!

Reception Hooking in

We were hooking into our new Expedition this week. Our Expedition is called Once Upon a Time : Who is hiding in the pages of the book. We have been making some storybook crafts and the children were keen to show off their fairy godmothers wands!

Well done everyone for a super week.

First Week Back

This week we have been so busy.

We have learned all about the Easter story, we had Pastor Kevin come in and sing some songs with us.

We have been thinking about number bonds to 5 in our maths learning and we are getting really good at showing this in our play.

Most of all, we have enjoyed being back at school with all of our reception crew.

Have the best Easter everyone.

XP Outdoors in Nursery

On Monday, Mr Kershaw came for some XP Outdoors fun with the children. He made the most of the fine weather and played ‘What time is it Mr Wolf?’, ‘Duck, Duck, Goose’, ‘hide and seek’, T-Rex hunt and reenacted the story of ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’. The Nursery children had so much fun and can’t wait for some more time with Mr Kershaw next Monday!

A happy week so far in Nursery!

What a gorgeous start back in Nursery this week kick starting the Summer Term with some wonderful collaborative play, potato printing, dressing up, story reading, hot cross bun tasting, reading and talking about the Easter story and so much more…

Easter Next baking in Nursery

The children loved making Easter nest buns yesterday. We talked about the ingredients we used and how they changed from being a solid to a liquid during the melting process. The children chose their own bun case and mini egg colour to make them unique to them. I hope everyone enjoyed eating them. They looked and smelt delicious!
