Welcome to Reception!

We are very excited that our topic for this half term is PIRATES!

We will be using a story called ‘The Pirates Are Coming!’ by John Condon as our starting point and are looking forward to doing lots of pirate activities to support learning across all areas of the curriculum. We will be starting with a treasure hunt where children have to read the clues to find the treasure!  

We will be listening to plenty of pirate stories and learning lots of pirate songs too! 

We welcome our second year student teacher, Miss Christie, to our classroom this half term. She has already been working with the children to create some lovely art work based on waves and supporting investigations into floating and sinking. 

Our PE day continues to be on a Friday, where children can come to school dressed in their PE kit. 

Also attached are the pictures we use to support our teaching of the letters and sounds in Phase 3 Phonics. Your child may be able to teach you some of the corresponding Makaton signs!
