Welcome to Reception's Friday Blog!

Communication and Language

This week we have been taking part in circle times. During these we have been introducing ourselves to each other and learning each other's names.

We have also used this time to practise our Golden Rule about listening.

We also had our first French lesson with Miss Whiting. We all learnt how to say hello. We have said Bonjour a lot since!

Expressive Art and Design

We have been exploring the primary colours this week. We have been using different materials which were red, yellow and blue, and we made our own colour patch.

We had our first Music lesson with Mrs Campbell. We listened to different instruments.

Physical Development

We all went to the hall to get changed for PE!

We found our spot on the mat and focussed on keeping our clothes in our bags. Then we took part in some jumping games.

We have also been using beads to make necklaces to help our fine motor skills.

Forest School

We had a great first Forest School session. We got changed into our wellies independently and showed great listening which is always so important in school.

Mrs Cliffe will always be in the Forest School sessions with Mrs Corbett.

We explored our log circle area and showed great care for all the creatures we found.

We also played on the logs, balanced on them and jumped off them.

To finish we played a game of 'Swap the Log, swap logs if you have ...a pet dog, hearts on your wellies, walked to school today!
