Phonics fun
We have loved having a go at our phonics board game. We roll the dice and where we land, we read the word or sound. It’s lots of fun and gives us lots of chance to practice our sounds!
Conker hammering!
We have been using hammers and tweezers to remove conkers from their shells. What a super way to build out fine motor skills and arm strength!
Active phonics!
Today reception sounded and blended cc’d words and then found the matching picture. This was a great way to get some exercise and practice our blending skills!
Noticing and sorting!
Today in forest school we collected natural objects and talked about what we noticed. We noticed the size, shapes, colours and types of natural object. We sorted them into groups and sets. We solved problems when an object did not match and belong.
Forming letters with paint!
We have been using paint to practice forming our letters in phonics!
Shared reading with Ralph!
We enjoyed whole school shared reading with Ralph today! We always enjoy ou
Sunflower artwork!
We created sunflower artwork in forest school today. We used natural materials like sunflower seeds, leaves and sticks.
Mud kitchen fun!
We are enjoying using different natural resources and enhancements in our mud kitchen area.
Today we stewed tea bags to make strong cups of steaming hot tea! Everyone was invited to the cafe to enjoy a cup!
Building our gross motor skills!
We have been rolling, racing and stacking tyres and cable reels! What a great way to build our gross motor skills, shoulder movement, strength and muscles!
Matching!
We can match! In maths we have been looking at things that are the same, alike and match. We also know when things are different and do not match!
Reception have started their monster phonics missions with the s sound!
Today reception have learned more about the s sound. We practiced forming s in sand, writing it in our books, looking at s initial sounds and alliteration with the s sound!
Shared reading today!
Class one enjoyed their shared reading session with their new partners today.
