This term in Reception, we will be welcoming lots of new children and families into our classes. 

Our topics are ‘All About Me and My Pets’ and ‘Bright Lights and Special Nights’. We will begin by learning about who is in our class and all about ourselves. We will be discussing what makes us all special and unique and what we might have in common with each other. In our second topic, we will continue to learn about each other as we explore different celebrations that are celebrated by our peers. 

We will share lots of books including: The Colour Monster, How to Catch a Star and The Pet. We will focus on our listening skills, asking and answering questions about the texts and predicting what might happen next.

We will be continuing our learning each day in the garden, so please make sure your child has their wellies and a coat ready for those wet, cold days which will be sure to come.  As well as this, we will start our Forest School sessions where the children can explore the Forest, climb trees, dig in the mud, balance on the rope bridge and search for minibeasts. Please make sure your child has their wellies and Forest School kit for these sessions as we will definitely be getting a bit (or very) muddy!
