Before half term the children developed their gross motor skills by putting out fires using broomsticks. It was great to see the children problem solve whilst filling up the watering cans with the different containers. @NorthManorAcad @VicAcademies

What a fabulous start to the week! Reception have had lots of fun today making ‘emotion pancakes’ they developed not only their PSED skills but also focused on enhancing their fine motor skills aswell. @NorthManorAcad @VicAcademies #eyfs #PancakeDay

Reception went on a wonderful trip to Warwick play village last week. It was great to see the children immersed in play, which gave them an insight into their new topic ‘Working World’ @NorthManorAcad @TomHullNMA #learningthroughplay

We have been continuing to build up on our oracy skills this week. The children had to generate their own questions to ask about the mystery object in the stocking. The stocking holder could only answer yes or no. A great way to develop listening skills also. @NorthManorAcad

Can you guess our theme in provision this week?❄️
This week Reception have developed a wide range of skills through our book stimulus ‘Stick man’. We have continued to build up on our oracy skills through the use of our curiosity cubes, as well as developing early writing.

‘ Have you filled a bucket today?’ was our book stimulus this week and the children absolutely loved exploring the deeper meaning of it. Here is a little activity I set up which encouraged some brilliant conversations 💕 #AntiBullyingWeek #EYFS @VicAcademies

Some fantastic #earlymaths conversations at our first @VicAcademies #EYFS network of the year!
Thank you @DevonshireInf for hosting 🤗

@nickyclements71 @VicAcademies @DevonshireInf @_louisefowler It was a purposeful session with a great opportunity to see early maths in action. Thank you for organising.

This week in reception we have been raising the status of oracy by implementing our discussion guidelines, use of talk partners and developing expressive language through purposeful provision. @NorthManorAcad #EYFS #oracy #communicationandlanguage

Reception have been having a ‘spooktacular’time this week immersed in activities based around Halloween.
We’ve been drawing pumpkins using oil pastels in the creative area, building words on the broom in phonics and developing our fine motor skills. What a fun week! #fides #eyfs
