Welcome to our Reception web page – we hope you find all the information you require here.

We are always happy to answer any questions or queries that you may have, so don’t hesitate to contact us.

We will be adding information here throughout the year to let you know what the children are doing.

We look forward to your continued support with developing reading, writing and number skills.

The Reception Team.

This term our focus will primarily be on Knights and Castles / New Life. Throughout this there will also be some time spent on the Chinese New Year celebrations and of course Easter. Children will sequence, re-write and recount on what they have listened to or found out, writing for a variety of purposes and in a variety of styles. The children will continue working on their phonic sounds and blends and match sounds to letter names. They will continue to read individually and in groups. Every week the children will be extending their writing skills, by writing about their news, writing labels and speech bubbles and writing sentences to go with pictures.

In Maths our focus will be on reinforcing number skills to 20. The children will explore simple addition and subtraction through practical tasks. We will revisit 2D and begin work on 3D shapes and use appropriate language to describe them. We will explore length, height and weight. The children will be introduced to money and be able to recognise smaller units of change and begin to use them 1p, 2p, 5p.
