Well, what a busy week!
We started this week focusing on prepositions. The boys wrote about the journey of The Snowman by Raymond Briggs. They described how he flew over and across many iconic buildings.
Continuing on from this on Tuesday the boys were challenged to located the compare bears in the classroom. The bears were numbered and the boys were asked to tick the position of the various bears. The final challenge was for the boys to place a bear somewhere different and indicate on their sheet the different prepositions they could use to describe its location. The boys definitely rose to the challenge!
In our Literacy sessions this week we have been working on the digraphs ‘qu’, ‘ai’ and ‘ao’.
Our Understanding the World topic continues to focus on Christmas traditions and this week we have learnt about the origins and history of the Christmas tree.
During ‘explore and learn’ time the boys have immersed themselves in Christmas craft activities and it was wonderful to see them working together to create a wonderful paper chain.
The boys have performed beautifully three times this week. We are very proud of them not just as performers but as a patient and attentive audience.
Well done Reception!
Have a wonderful weekend.
