Reception Newsletter 16.1017

Term: Autumn 1                      Date: 16.10.17
Dear Parents,
      Your child should have received a reading book last week, it is very important that this book along with their reading record is returned on their designated reading day.  This can be found in the front cover of their reading record.

     This week we will be reading the text ‘Owl Babies’ and carrying out related tasks. This follows on from the children getting an opportunity to stroke an owl when our visitor came last week.

     The learning objectives:
Personal, Social and Emotional
Can usually adapt behaviour to different events, social situations and changes in routine.
Confident to talk to other children.

     Messages.
     
     Please do not allow your children to bring toys into school from home, they get lost, broken and cause disagreements.  Furthermore we provide fresh water for all of the children in a named bottle, please do not send in any water from home.

      Thank you to all of the parents who have sent in 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.
