Literacy
This week, we have been learning all about The Christmas Story. We used actions to help us remember the events, and the children really enjoyed joining in. Click here to watch us.
We wrote our own sentences about a scene from The Christmas Story. The children used their segmenting skills to write the sounds they could hear. In Reception, we encourage them to try writing by themselves. Sometimes you will see words spelled phonetically – this is absolutely fine. It helps the children become confident, enthusiastic writers!
On Tuesday, we had great fun decorating the Christmas tree in the hall. It now looks wonderfully festive and ready for next week’s Christmas performances and parties!
Here’s a snapshot of some of the Christmas challenges we’ve been completing this week.
