Reception
Class
9th September 2016
A big well done to
everyone in Reception for
completing your first full
week in school! I am
extremely proud of
everyone you have all
settled in brilliantly and
have all been working very
hard. I am a very proud
teacher. Well done and
keep up the brilliant work,
Miss Brown.
Maths
This week we have been
learning to recognise and write
numbers 1-5. You have all tried
very hard and have made
excellent progress, well done!
It would be lovely if parents
could play lots of fun number
games as this will help your
child to develop their number
recognition.
Literacy
This week we have started
our topic which is ‘All About
Me’. We have been talking
about our likes, dislikes and
our families. We have been
reading stories about
starting school and
different families. We have
had some superb discussions
and have shared lots of
ideas in our key groups.
Phonics
This week we have learnt our
first sounds which are ‘s’ and
‘a’. We have been looking at
their formations and have been
finding different things around
the classroom that start with
these sounds.
Notices
This weeks homework is sound ‘s’ and
‘a’ in your child’s sound book.
Please can I stress the importance
of reading with your child at home.
Please can you try to aim to read
with your child for 10 minutes every
night.
Many thanks for your continued
support, Miss Brown.
