The teachers in Class One are Mrs Jobbins and Mrs Harris. We also have Mrs Roberts to help us with our learning.

Our big classroom is made up of lots of areas for us to explore and investigate. We also love to play outside and in our purpose built outdoor classroom 'The Den'. 

Our outdoor space is full of wonderful wooden equipment; our marvellous water wall, play house, rope and pulley system, den posts and story telling throne are just the beginning! We look forward to making the most of it all and seeing lots of wonderful conversations and moments of learning.

We are starting our term off with growing and life cycles. We planted our seeds just before Easter and they have grown well over the past few weeks. It won't be long now until we can plant our seedlings outside in our allotment area.

We have now set up our incubator and we have placed 6 eggs inside to keep warm over the coming weeks. The children have some interesting ideas for what will hatch out...

We will be tracking the growth and development of the chicks over the coming weeks.

We will be spending more time in our Woodland School now that we have a shed and some wonderful new resources. Watch this space for photos!

It is so really important to take the children's lead with the planning in Reception so we will be and following their interests for what comes next.

In Phonics we will be recapping Phase 3 of Letters and Sounds. We will be learning through whole class activities, games and small group sessions to put what we have learnt into practise. We will also be continuing our guided reading sessions to encourage the children's understanding of books and love of reading.

In Maths we will spend the next few weeks focussing on 3D shapes and their properties; we will be sorting them and finding examples in our environment. We will then move on to addition and subtraction including halving and doubling.

We have a busy few weeks ahead! We look forward to sharing our learning with you soon.
