Term: Autumn 1 Date: 18.09.17
Dear Parents,
We had a super first week with the children most of them have settled really well into school life at Broadford. Each week we will provide you with a newsletter. The purpose of this newsletter is to keep you up to date with any relevant news in Reception. It will include a list of intended learning objectives, an overview of activities, the learning challenge (which we will not commence until the second part of the Autumn term), notices, important dates and the stories and topics that we will be focussing on.
We hope you had a chance to look at the children's first day pictures last week on the facebook page.
The learning objectives will be listed under these headings:
Personal, Social and Emotional
Can select and use activities and resources with help
Shows confidence in asking adults for help
Communication and Language
To follow directions
To use talk to connect ideas
Literacy
To sometimes give meanings to the marks they draw and paint
Listens to and joins in with stories
Physical Development:
Runs skillfully and negotiates space
Mounts stairs, steps or climbing equipment
Mathematics
Beginning to recite numbers in order to 10
Knows that numbers identify how many objects are in a set
This newsletter will be posted on our EYFS blog and facebook page at the beginning of each week. It will also be available in the outdoor area, in a blue tray labelled ‘Weekly Newsletter’
Messages.
Thank you to all of the parents who have sent is a named set of spare clothes and wellington boots, if you haven’t we would appreciate these as soon as possible.
Rewards Strategies
Just so you are aware we follow a whole school approach to behaviour management, incorporating the 4 R’s which can be found on the school website along with the values. To ensure the system is age appropriate we use a happy and sad face within the Early Years. We do not use ‘House Points’ but we do use ‘Dojo Points’. The points are allocated to children who are choosing to do the right thing. Each week we will have a dojo point winner.
