Rainbow - Week 4- Superhero Dad 

The Week Ahead

This week in phonics we will be learning p, i and n. Please make sure that you have seen the homework on Google classroom and are working on the sounds from last week to ensure that your child is confident with them.

Our book for Drawing Club is "Penguin". Our adventures will be based around the penguin and the lion in the story.

In maths, we will be counting 1:1 up to five and thinking about 'how many?'.

In Religious Education, we will be learning that God invites us to join his family. We will be talking about and role-playing baptism. If you have any baptism photographs that you could send in, that would be excellent. 

Rainbow week 5 - Superhero Dad

How it Went

 It has been another busy and exciting week in Reception!

The children are growing in confidence with their sounds and are beginning to use them in their writing during Drawing Club. Some children are even starting to put letters together to make words – we are very impressed with their progress! In maths, the children were very excited to meet Derek the Dinosaur, who has been helping us with our counting and thinking carefully about how we know “how many” there are.

We’ve also seen lots of creativity this week. The children practised their drawing by following along with “how to” videos, which they really enjoyed, and the children discovered our making area – it has been wonderful to see their imaginations come to life!

In PE, we worked on our ball control skills, and in Forest School, the children listened carefully before setting off to search the ground for different objects. 

A special highlight of the week was our Welcome Assembly with our Year 5 buddies. The children did so well performing their songs, and it was lovely to see so many of you there to celebrate with us.

Thank you also to everyone who sent in Baptism photographs – the children have really enjoyed sharing and talking about these in class.
