Half Term Project Details and Homework Ideas 

 

Do you want to be friends?

The new projects run for the first half of the Autumn term. Homework contributions can be made throughout the half term, please make sure your child brings in something that they have worked on at home. 

Below are a list of ideas for each project, try one of these or something else project related. 

For this half term our project is Do you want to be friends? 

In this project we are looking at: 

  Making Friends 

Being Kind 

Being Helpful 

 Could you ask your child to draw a picture relating to any of the above areas. This could be friends they have made and how they have been kind or helpful at home or at school. 

  We will be displaying all of the children's work. 

We look forward to seeing your creations.

 

The Early Years Curriculum

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum which uses continuous play and exploration to learn. Adults plan both adult supported and child initiated activities that enable the children to develop social skills, self confidence and independence in a range of contexts.   


Please remember to bring:

In case of accidents all children need;

  • A spare set of clothes; including pants, socks, a top and bottoms, which remain at school in their locker. 

They also need;

  • their book bag and water bottle everyday.
  • no laces on school or PE shoes, velcro fastenings are ideal for this age.

Please see here the Powerpoint shared during the induction session.

Reception Reminders

  • Reception homework is set on Friday each week and is sent home through Marvellous Me
  • Each week the children should recap their Little Wandle sounds and tricky words from the week and read both their class book and reading scheme book as many times as possible.
  • All information to Reception parents is sent via Marvellous Me. In addition to any general information each child has one observation per week.  
  • Medical Tracker is the app the school uses to email you regarding any first aid or medication that has been administered to your child. You will receive this information by email.

Little Wandle is our phonics scheme.  Here is the link to explore more of what this looks like for your child.
