Reception Newsletter 01.04.19


Term: Spring 2               Date: 01.04.19

Dear Parents and Carers,

Last week was a busy one, full of rescuing carrots, capturing peas and a lot of letter writing as well. We are continuing with ‘Supertato’ for a few more days as we make our own vegetable superheroes.

This week we will also begin reading ‘Superworm’ by Julia Donaldson. The children will be searching for minibeasts and worms as well writing potions to defeat the evil lizard wizard.


Communication and Language

We are encouraging children to use talk to organise, sequence and clarify thinking, ideas, feelings and events.

Physical Development
As we continue to develop the children’s fine motor strength we are now also focussing on their letter and number formation as well. Particularly encouraging and correcting backwards formed letters and numbers.

Maths
We are looking at time this week. We will be timing how long it takes us to tidy up, line up, get ready for home. Perhaps you could time things at home, how long it takes to brush your teeth, how long it takes to get dressed. We will be encouraging the children to use everyday language related to time as well as time short periods of time.

Literacy
We will be writing potions to help save Superworm and defeat the evil wizard lizard.

Expressive Arts and Design
The children will be designing and making their own vegetable superheroes from a range of vegetables and resources.
