This week in Year R (week beginning 28th September)

This week in Year R:
The children having been learning the names of the friends in their class and exploring the indoors and outdoors with different friends.

We have introduced the book ‘Starting School’ by Janet and Allen Alhberg. The children have enjoyed listening to this story, making comparisons and similarities between themselves and others.

In maths, the children have learnt all about the number two, explaining that two is one more than one and one is one less than two. We have been practicing this with objects in cups and leaves on trees.
The children have looked at the semi-circle shape, which links in nicely with number two! We have discussed and learnt that a semi-circle has one straight line and one curved line.

In phonics the focus has been creating sounds using our bodies, comparing the sounds and using the correct language to describe the sounds, e.g. loud, quiet, slow, fast, high, deep, compare.

Ensure that any reading is logged onto Seesaw so your child can earn stickers on their reading caterpillar.
