We have had a busy week in Reception filled with hope, anticipation and reflection.
In RE this week we talked about how we can prepare for Christmas, we thought about what we have already done at home to make this time of celebration extra special. We used our hands to make an advent wreath for our class and look forward to ‘lighting’ another candle on Monday. We made birthday cards for Jesus, we have four December birthdays to look forward to in our class too.
In Maths this week we have been counting different groups of objects and adding one more. We were interested to see the total was more than before. We have also been counting forwards and backwards from different numbers and saying the next number in the sequence.
Jingles the Elf phoned us this week to let us know he was very very busy in the workshop. He asked if we could tell stories about him going on an adventure. He wanted to read them to the other elves. We had good fun writing some stories and look forward to more of us have a go next week.
It’s fantastic to see writing on these stories, we have been ‘Fredding’ the sounds and writing what we can hear!
