Summer 2 - Week 5

Date: 1st Jul 2024 @ 2:59pm

Hi everyone,

What a very busy week!

This week's story was the ‘Cautious Caterpillar’. We discussed Cody the caterpillar's fear of transforming into a butterfly. Cody eventually learned to embrace her incredible transformation with the help of her friends. We discussed how we are preparing for change, as our first year of school comes to an end.  We understand that change can be a little scary, but it can also be exciting.  We also spent some time sharing our Reception memories with one another.

As part of our RSE focus week, we discussed how we are all different and that it is important to celebrate those differences. We also talked about the meaning of friendship.

In phonics, we continued to develop our confidence when writing sentences, independently. 

In maths and as part of our Understanding the World lessons, we had a lot of fun working out which objects would float or sink by placing them in a water tray. Next week, we have an experiment planned in which we will design and a construct a boat to determine whether it floats. Watch this space!

We hope that you have a lovely weekend,

The Receptiom Team
