A busy week in Reception. Inside and outside, developing lots of skills.

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

We had lots of fun playing out in the snow on Monday.

Going for walks is an excellent time to talk about math with your child.

Another busy week in Reception. Colour mixing, poppy making and building. Look at the counter weights in that block model!

Why Kids Need to Move, Touch, and Experience to Learn
“A very strong predictor of academic achievement was how early kids were moving, exploring their world.”

This game played with a hula hoop and bean bags demonstrates all the MATH that can be explored with a simple tossing game.

Seems like something that could be easy (and fun!) at home...

Some people drew their neighbourhood and places that were important to them. Can you spot the motorway on the first picture? More super writing - all independent. #mmgeography #mmeyfs

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Reception have been looking at maps and plans. Some of us drew our own plans of our houses and had a go at labelling them. #mmeyfs #mmgeography

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Whatever the weather, we like to play outside!

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Some child initiated learning about trajectories and “making a catapult”. Lots of cause and effect, predicting, testing ideas and talking about what the plan was.

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Look at these boys enjoying books in our reading area. Our new reading for pleasure books at home have sparked a real interest in looking at books together. We still need to work on putting them away tidily!

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Look at this superstar - he made today’s grapheme, s, using train tracks!

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

We are so lucky to have such a lovely view from our junior playground. Reception went on a senses walk to see what we could find around our school grounds.

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Look at all these lovely Reception library books bought for us by @PTAMMoor - every child can choose a book to share at home each week. #loveofreading #readingforpleasure #parentscarerpartnerships

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Our Reception children have now been in school for nearly 2 weeks and they have all settled so well! We have been very busy getting to know our new friends and enjoying all the things we have to do.

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Lots of fun inside and out this week in Reception. Can you guess what our puppet show was about?

[Meltham Moor Primary @MelthamMoor]

All our Reception new starters found out that they were coming to join us today. We are so pleased to welcome those of you who are new to school, to the Meltham Moor family, and look forward to meeting you.

[Reception Meltham @ReceptionMMoor]

Look at the concentration here - pen and watercolour drawing and painting of Spring tulips today.
