Look at Us Learning
Starting in Reception...Settling in, making friends and exploring all that Reception has to offer!
Spring 1 - We loved traditional tales! We explored Little Red Riding Hood, Beauty & the Beast, Cinderella and The Tortoise and the Hare. We learnt about different measurements, height, weight and capacity! We loved celebrating Chinese New Year, Valentines Day and Story telling week!
Spring 2 - Kicking off with Pancake day! We voted to explore animals and are learning about their habitats, different places in the world and researching our favourite animals! The weather is improving so we are spending more times outdoors! Science week's theme of growing led us to growing plants and sea monkeys! This continued into an interest around growing plants and we set to work making our outdoor area a more natural space for us to grow plants, flowers and vegetables. We tasted herbs and decided which we wanted to grow for ourselves. Easter finished off a wonderful half term with the Easter bunny leaving us challenges and an Easter egg hunt!
Summer 1 - We voted to learn about toys this half term, starting by looking at our favourite modern toys and comparing them with toys of the past. It's been great fun exploring how toys have changed over the years! We have also been busy in our new gardening area and taking extra special care of our plants and vegetables as they grow. We found a birds nest with tiny eggs inside which we will be watching carefully to see what happens, we set up a camera to catch all the action and made bird feeders too! Our new message centre has sparked our love for writing! We finished this half term following our interest of pets! We had some special guests - 'Skittles' the hamster and 'Twiggy' the horse!
Summer 2 - We kicked off our last half term with a bang! Celebrations all round for the Queens Platinum Jubilee and 70 years of Flash Ley! We have been busy in our mud kitchen, enjoying super sentence writing, performing a talent show and perfecting our physical skills!
