Nursery
Reception & Nursery Christmas Play – 21/22
Summer Term Knowledge Organiser – 2024/2025
The Latest Nursery Learning Update!
Our topic for this half term has been, ‘On your Marks…’ and this week we read the text, ’Real SuperHeroes’. We learned about real people who help us all and some examples of jobs we could do when we grow up. Some of us wanted to be pilots, police officers, cleaners and postal workers. We learned new vocabulary related to our text such as Gardener and waiter/waitress.
In maths we have been revisiting how to name and describe 2D and 3D shapes. We learned about using subject specific words such a sides, corners and flat to describe 2D shapes. We also learned to use words such solid and faces to describe 3D shapes such as cube, cone and cylinder. We looked at our environment and named the shapes around using our knowledge.
In phonics, some of us continued with working on our listening and attention through story time. Others have been reviewing the sounds and harder to read and spell words we have learned so far.
We were busy building different things using many types of resources such as screws, bolts and wheels. We have enjoyed sharing and waiting for our turn to play. Next week, we will be talking about transitions and exploring our feelings.
Reception
Summer Term Knowledge Organiser – 2024/2025
The Latest Reception Learning Update!
This week Reception have started their new topic ‘On Your Marks…’ which is all about getting ready for year one.
Our book of the week has been My Friends On The Inside which looks at the importance of healthy eating and looking after our bodies and this has been our PSED focus for the week. In Understanding the World the children looked at different fruit and vegetables from around the world and thought about their different requirements to grow.
In our English sessions we have been practising reading captions and developing our comprehension skills, looking at the 5 main question types.
The children have been exploring doubling in maths and have been using the concrete resources to help solidify their learning and develop their maths mastery.
We have also been preparing for Refugee Week and the children created some amazing artwork, inspired by this year’s theme – Community as a Superpower.
