Reception - Science - Exploring Autumn
This afternoon, Reception Class went on an adventure around the school grounds to observe signs of Autumn. Before we set off we discussed the kind of things we expect to see in Autumn. The children said leaves, worms, spiders and webs. We found leaves, twigs, sticks, acorns and lots of other Autumnal objects. We also saw a digger carrying out some work and our gardener’s blowing the leaves. The children also said hello to their friends and family over at nursery, which was lovely. It was a fantastic afternoon in the fresh air and the children were able to talk about the things we had observed.
Reception - PSHE - Our Feelings
Reception has been talking about the different feelings we have throughout our day. They were able to show some amazing expressions for happy, cheeky, angry and sad. They were also able to talk about when they feel some of these emotions.
Reception - RE - Friendships
Reception has started a new topic in RE on "Friendships". Today they talked about what makes a good friend and who are their friends. They then had fun connecting up the picture pairs from their favourite film and television characters. Paw Patrol characters were their favourite examples of good friends helping each other!

Reception - PE - Balancing
This half term Reception Class are going to be learning fundamental PE skills. This week we started with balancing. The children had to walk around on their heels and their toes. For our next activity the children had to move around the hall, remembering to keep their space, running, jumping, walking backwards and hopping. I shouted stop and named a body part and they had to put that body part on the floor. Once they were feeling confident with this, the children had to move in different ways with a hoop on their head. This was tricky, especially when they had to step over the hurdles!
Reception - PE - Following and Copying a Parter.
Today the children had to move in a variety of ways with a partner, trying really hard to stay in their space. They then had to copy actions with a partner, moving in and out of a hoop.

Reception - PSHE - Who Can Help Us?
In PSHE, Reception Class have been thinking about people they can turn to for help when they need it. They wrote the names or drew pictures of the people on a hand print. Lots of children said they would turn to "Mummy" or a sibling for help and enjoyed drawing pictures of them.
Fire Safety
A Home Office study has found that approximately 350 children are injured in accidental fires every year
Reception RE: Learning About Muslim Prayer
For our RE topic on prayer, the children learnt about Muslim prayer and the actions that are important to make during the times of prayer. Miss Dalal helped the class to say the names of each action and perform the action correctly.
Reception Class - Maths - Matching and Making Patterns
The children first found the cards that had the matching pattern on. Then they needed to choose blocks of just 2 colours and make a recurring pattern with them.
Reception Class - Name Writing
The children have had a go at writing their name using their name card. I asked the children if they could identify any letters from their name, some children could. As the children were writing, we discussed correct pencil grip and I supported the children to achieve this. Some children could form some letters and some children made marks to represent the different letters in their name.
Reception Maths: Comparing Capacity.
In Maths, Reception class has been comparing capacity by using different size boxes. They enjoyed using the cuddly toys to find the perfect home to consider which was the right size to fit it in; small, medium or big.
