The children have been very busy making shape pictures of
people. The children have been using their knowledge of shapes to name the
shapes that they need.
We have been doing a thorough sounds, tricky word and
blending check with the children this week which has been very encouraging. Please
keep practising the sounds and tricky words with your children over the next
few weeks so that they do not forget what they have learnt. We will not be
reading with the children any more this term to make space for Christmas
activities. We will however, be doing
lots of writing which will be drawing on the sounds and tricky word skills that
they have been developing.
We have been carrying on with learning about teen numbers. Children
can find teen numbers challenging to learn. If you are not sure how to support
your child at home with maths, there are some great ideas in the booklet that
we gave at the parents information meeting.
Thank you to the parents that have returned the slip about
the Christmas Craft Morning. Please do so if you haven’t already as we will
need to buy our resources for the morning soon. Please be reassured lots of
parents will be taking their children home on that day so please do not order a
lunch for your child on that day. If you have already ordered a lunch for your
child and you would like to take them home, please ask the office to cancel it
for you.
We will be sending your child’s puddle suit home over
Christmas. We are finding that some children avoid using our woodland area
because they find it difficult to put on their puddle suit. Please practise
this with your child at home so that they are confident to use all areas of our
reception base.
