Welcome back Nursery and Reception!

We started 2023 with our amazing topic all about Superheroes. This week we looked at some fictional heroes like Elsa from Frozen and even explored some icy hands. We also introduced the idea of real life superheroes, like doctors, firefighters and police officers and the children thought about what super powers they have and what job they may like when they grow up.

We explored the numbers 10 and 11 and thought about one more and one less. The children had lots of amazing ideas for how we could represent the number using drawings, numbers and even our fingers. Nursery are learning about numbers 0-2, how to write them and what the number and quantity look like.

In Reception, the children have started to use their phonics knowledge to build sentences and sound and segment words they would like to write. They have also been sounding and blending in their reading; it looks like lots of you did a lot of practise over the holidays as the children were amazing.

In Nursery we are listening to the letter sounds 's' and 'a' . We have been identifying letter sounds in our environment and making a book with letter sounds and objects in.
