Phonics Book Filters - Reception Spring 2 Week 6 (we're ahead of schedule due to the long terms!)

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

We have been learning about Goldilocks and the Three Bears and so we used this opportunity to have some fun and try some porridge! We could choose our own toppings out of strawberries, bananas and honey and had great fun eating our yummy creation.

Maths Learning!

We have been exploring some new concepts in Maths. We thought about describing things using 'tall' and 'short' so we made our tallest towers. We were also thinking about time ordering and sequencing events. To practise this, we made jam sandwiches and talked about the order we did each step in.

Happy Mother's Day from Ladybirds Class!

Book Week

We used the books 'The Wonder' and 'The Magic Crayon' to inspire our Book Week learning, focussed on 'The Power of the Imagination'. We had a wonderful week and loved the opportunity to dress up as our favourite characters on World Book Day.

The Smeds and The Smoos

We have been reading 'The Smeds and The Smoos' in our lessons and using this book as inspiration for some of our learning about Space. We had a Smeds and Smoos day where we made and decorated Smed or Smoo headbands and made brown bread. We then had a Smeds and Smoos tea party where we ate our brown bread with green stew, pink milk and black tea!

Winter Walk

We went on a very fun Winter Walk to see how the area had changed since Autumn. We found lots of big muddy puddles to jump in!

Space learning

We have been having so much fun learning about Space! We made Space Passports for our Role Play area and aliens out of clay.

Christmas R.E. Day

We had lots of fun learning the Christian story of Christmas. We made some decorations and hung them on our school Christmas tree. We practised our Nativity, sung some Christmas songs and during our Choosing Time we could play with the Christmas story dolls, decorate Christmas trees, cut and stick our own Nativity and write some Christmas cards.

Halloween Fun!

We had lots of fun on Halloween, dressing up for the PTFA Fun Run and completing lots of fun activities in our classroom.

Senses - Taste

We had lots of fun this week thinking about our different senses and the parts of the body involved with these senses. We tried some different foods to test our sense of taste. We thought about the words we could use to describe the flavours, like sweet, sour, salty and savoury.
