Reception 2025 - 2026
Mrs Wheatcroft
Welcome to our Reception page
Our topic this forst half term is based on Jill Murphy's book, Peace At Last. We have had lots of lovely fiction and non-fiction books delivered from the library about bedtime, daytime and nighttime activities, nocturnal animals, different jobs, houses and homes and families.
This story also gives us opportunities to link with our No Outsiders theme;all different,all welcome.
We will be starting our Phonics lessons using our Little `wandle phonics scheme. The children will be learning individual letters and sounds where we practise saying, hearing and writing the letters each week. They will also being playing games to support hearing rhyme and alliteration.
In maths we will be meeting The Numberblocks and seeing how Numberblocks 1, 2 and 3 can help us. We will enjoy playing with shapes, blocks and different construction equipment to support understanding and conversations around shape, pattern and size.
The children are being encouraged to bring home a book from our reading corner to share with you. They are not yet bringing guided reading books home. More information on those will follow.
