Celebrations in Reception

Hi everyone,

Thank you to all of our children and parents who are working so hard at home to complete the challenges we set or coming up with some super learning ideas/activities to keep everyone entertained and motivated at home. You’re doing a great job!

I have sent a ‘Golden Box’ prize out in the post today to somebody who does all the work set, and more!

KC prize for completing all work

Keep going everyone (I know how hard it is with a 13 and 15 year old myself, so I can sympathise!!!)

Thanks again and stay safe,

Mrs Casswell 🙂

Reception – weekly challenges

Good morning,

We hope you’ve all had a super half term and enjoyed the glorious weather!

For this half term, we are going to post work for the week on a Monday, so you can follow it through at your own pace and see how it progresses.

Any queries please contact us through Seesaw or email us on:

sam.geran2@taw.org.uk      or

kate.caswell@taw.org.uk

If you would like copies of the work, please email or send a message on Seesaw and we will leave them at the school office for you to collect. This week, they will be ready to collect from Tuesday 2nd June, after 10am. After that, it will be every Monday.

Message from Mrs Casswell – Please see Seesaw for the daily story. I will try to continue to do this until the Summer holidays 🙂

Warm wishes,

Mrs Casswell & Mrs Geran

Friday fun in Reception

Good morning everyone,

We hope you’re all well and looking forwards to a well deserved Bank Holiday weekend/Half term. Mentally, physically and emotionally, this last half term has been quite challenging for everyone, including us. So, lets all be kind to ourselves and have fun with our families, enjoying the simple things in life 🙂

Our activities today include; building houses for the pigs; playing shops and if you’re feeling brave, writing/drawing ‘The Three Little Pigs’ story. There will be a golden box prize for anyone having a go at writing the story 🙂

Friday 22nd May English

Friday money challenges

After half term, we will continue to post work for the children who are learning at home. We will put a weekly challenge page and attach any worksheets to the same document. As we’ve always said, don’t worry if you cant print it – doing things practically in maths and verbally in phonics is just as important and effective for your child’s learning.

Have fun and stay safe,

Warm wishes,

Mrs Casswell & Mrs Geran xx

Tuesday’s challenges for Reception

Good Morning,

We hope you’re all well.

For Phonics/English today, we’ve attached the DfE lesson, where the learning focus is ‘oa’. Our story this week is a traditional one – ‘The Three Little Pigs’.

Tuesday 19th May English

The maths includes some more fun activities related to ‘money’.

Tuesday counting with pennies

We know some of our families prefer having a sheet to work from, so we’ve also attached a proforma. As we’ve said before, please don’t feel you’ve got to print these off as doing it practically is just as valuable 🙂

Tuesday activity

Have a good day,

Mrs Casswell & Mrs Geran.
