Reception Teacher Blog

This week in reception we have been looking at using our senses to tell a story. We looked at things we like to smell and decided that ice cream is the best smell. We listened to some beach sounds with our eyes closed and used our imaginations to think of things we might do or see if we were at the beach. Building sandcastles and swimming with sharks were definite favourites.  
In maths we have looked at numbers one to five. We have played clapping games and used the smartboard to give the correct number of cakes to teddy bears.  
We have also been learning how to play snakes and ladders. We can go up ladders or down snakes if we land on them. Painting pictures of our family has also been a firm favourite this week.  ​
