Reception - Learning from Home

Thank you for supporting your children during this period of school closures.
 
Summer Term Home Learning
 
Each week we will send home a ‘Learning Project’ which has a variety of English and Mathematics core learning tasks. Ideally, one of each of these tasks should be completed daily.  (1 reading, 1 writing, 1 maths and 1 spelling). There are other learning activities to choose from: Art, Music, Science, Computing of which we would recommend choosing 1 per day. Each ‘Learning Project’ also has a theme for example ‘My Family’ which gives your child the chance to do some research and be creative in how they present their learning during the week. Also try to do 1 physical activity per day.
 
 Look at our main ‘Home Learning‘ page for general advice about Home Learning.
 
Reading
 

Please read for 10 minutes every day.  For additional reading, read books or e-books.

Writing

Please do a little bit of writing daily. We have included 20 pictures to use as a prompt for writing. Stick one picture at the top of the page. Ask your child to think of a sentence that they could write about the picture. Encourage them to be as independent as possible when writing. Ask them to put the sounds in the words on their Fred fingers. Encourage them to leave a finger space between each word. Check that they are using correct letter formation and ask them to practise the letters that they need to. Children to write more than one sentence about each picture where possible (use a capital letter at the beginning of the sentences and a full stop at the end).

Numeracy

Please complete one of the Numeracy challenges provided each day. Use resources that the children can pick up, count and move e.g. pennies, pebbles, buttons etc. Support them to begin the activity and then encourage to continue independently where possible.

Additional learning

We have also created a grid of additional activities that you could complete with your child if you/they wish. Try and complete as many as you can:
