Term 2.1 2018

Reception

We had a fantastic Christmas and it was lovely to hear about everyone celebrated. The children have settled back in brilliantly and are established in their routines. This half term we will be focusing on our STEM project which we will focus on scientific enquiry about Space.

Thanks for all your support!

This terms core value is Challenge

So what is challenge?

A challenge is something new and can be difficult but can be accomplished through hard work and determination.

Exploring role play -

similarities and differences?

This half term we will be using the role play area to explore our text …

The children will have the opportunity to design and create new things in our role play area – labeling, listing etc as they go. They will also explore the PSED elements within the texts that we study to investigate similarities and differences between ourselves, family members, friends and within other cultures.
