Reception - Sprites and Unicorns

Autumn Term 2021

Well done for your first half term! 

Maths

In maths we will be following the Maths Mastery approach. Children will learn that collections of objects can be sorted into sets based on attributes such as colour, size or shape. We will look at how the same collection of objects can be sorted in different ways and look at comparing different objects. 

Read Write Inc Phonics

The children will be following Read Write Inc Phonics programme. RWI is a whole-school approach to teaching literacy  that creates fluent readers, confident speakers and willing writers. It integrates phonics with comprehension, writing, grammar, spelling and handwriting, using engaging partner work and drama.  The children will be assigned to groups according to their level and we will be assessing the children continuously, so that they can move through the groups as they progress. Please check Tapestry for updates on your child's group and when books are needed to be handed in.

Theme

Our theme for this half term is Celebrations!

We will be learning about the different celebrations that happen around the world. We can't wait to share all the exciting acitivities we have planned. 

PE lessons

PE day will be Wednesday for both Unicorns and Sprites. The children will come to school dressed in their PE kit. 

Reading at Home 

Reading everyday to and with your children is more important than ever. Please can you record the reading you do in their Reading Diary.

Thank you for your support.
