Reception 2025 - 2026
Mrs Wheatcroft
Welcome to our Reception page
Our Literacy book this half term is The Sea Saw by Tom Percival. We have had lots of lovely books delivered from the library about families, transport, sea creatures, journeys and about transport, communication and seaside holidays from the past. We will be complimenting this theme with a visit to Grosvenor Museum to look at toys from the past and at the rooms inside a Victorian house. This book also gives us opportunities to link with our No Outsiders theme;all different,all welcome.
In phonics, we are now working in Phase 4, where the children will consolidating their understanding of all the digraphs and trigraphs we learned last term and learning to read longer words. The children will continue to read with an adult each week and are working hard with a range of writing based activities, based on our literacy book, in independent activities and on other topics.
In maths we will be focussing on doubling numbers to 10, number bonds to 10,odd and even numbers and comparing numbers and quantities, and we will continue to use our friends The Numberblocks to help us!
Please continue to read with your child at home as often as you can. Little and often is best and makes such a difference to your child's progress.
Thank you.
