Learning through Nature in Reception
We love our amazing playground! It provides endless opportunities for the children to explore, observe and learn.
The children have enjoyed the ladybirds' life cycle, using their mathematical skills to count and compare snails and noticing how our plants change from week to week. They have been taking care of the plants, watering them and developing responsibility and respect for the natural world.
Paul the Storyteller returns to Reception
We had another lovely visit from Paul he Storyteller a couple of weeks ago.
The children were excited to welcome Paul back for another interactive storytelling session. Using music to bring his stories to life, Paul encourages everyone to join in and use their imagination.
It's been great to have regular visits from Paul and we've loved seeing how much more confident the children have become. They are now keen to take part, join in with the songs and contribute to the stories.
Reception writing success!
It is fantastic to see the progress our Reception children are making in their writing. Their confidence and independence continue to grow and many chidlren are now choosing to indepenently write during continuous provision.
The children use their phonics knowledge to write words using phonetically plausible spellings and love recording their ideas.
We love seeing our chidlren develop a genuinle love of learning!
