St John the Baptist CE VA Primary School Reception

This week we started our new topic ‘Ourselves’ by creating a mind map to show what we already know and new information we have discovered. We painted self-portraits and practised writing our names. We read our Scarf PSED book, All About Me and thought about how we are the same and how we are different. We also began our Little Wandle Developing Language, Rhyme Time lessons, which supports children learning language, their awareness of sounds within words and later their reading. For maths this week we have been singing counting rhymes and practising our counting skills. During Learning Through Play we had the opportunity to practise getting ready for school in our Home Corner, build a house in our Construction Area and play in our School Role Play.
