It has been another busy half term in school, with the reception children working hard to achieve their Early Learning Goals and nursery children developing their learning in all areas of the curriculum. Warmer days have allowed increased opportunities for high quality outdoor learning. Our tadpoles have grown into froglets and then frogs and have now been safely returned to Mrs Bailey's pond.
In mathematics we have been practising counting in 10s, 2s and 5s, sharing objects into equal sets and revising the names and properties of 3D shapes. We have also been using cubes to weigh and measure a range of objects. In literacy nursery children are practising hearing initial sounds and rhyming sounds in words and are gaining confidence in independent writing activities, while the reception children have written and illustrated their own magic beanstalk stories. Every morning we take part in 10 minutes of healthy exercise, making sure we run, skip, cycle or climb fast enough to make our hearts beat fast!
