Reception have been very busy enjoying the fabulous sunny weather! They have also made some fabulous Easter craft!
Reception have been showing off their independent reading, writing and maths skills. We have been reading words, hunting for them outside and writing sentences. We are using skittles, counters and objects to investigate number bonds of 10. We have decorated pots and then sprinkled cress seeds in to make cress heads. We talked about what the seeds need so that they will grow. We have some new additions to Reception. Everyone was so excited to see the frogspawn. We will be investigating how they change, grow and how we can look after them.
Reception had a fabulous World Book Day! We dressed up as lots of our favourite characters and made some amazing story boxes We had an amazing time exploring all of our activities.
What a fabulous couple of hours we all had yesterday! L:ots of our children’s adults came to our stay and play. We are so proud of how Reception children have progressed socially and academically and letting them show everyone these fabulous skills was a pleasure.
Wow, what a busy time Reception have had. We have been looking at the Emergency Services and how they help us. The children have been full emersed and are ready to join when they are older! We have been using the story Three Billy Goats in Drawing Club and the children have loved creating bridges, recreating the story and writing sentences about the story. We have also been measuring our hands and feet. A fabulous couple of weeks!
A very busy Spring 1 RE day at Hebburn Lakes!
As pat of our current theme ‘Athens V Sparta’ we have been looking at persistence, determination and team work. We have tried to balance spoons on our noses- which isn’t easy but we were determined to do it and working as a team of structural engineers to create the tallest tower we could.
As part of our Jigsaw lessons we have had designed and made our own potato characters. The children thought carefully about what characteristics their characters would have.
We had some very special visitors this afternoon! Our Learning means The World theme this week was ‘Police, fire, ambulance!’ Some very kind police officers came to chat to the children. They told them about all their job and let everyone have a turn in the car, try on some of their uniform and of course have a turn of the lights and siren! We had a fabulous afternoon.
