Welcome to our Reception Class Page!
Here you can find out what we are going to be learning this half-term and read any important reminders.
Phonics
We will be continuing to learn our Phase 2 sounds and tricky words. We will be using these sounds to segment and blend simple cvc words and begin to write simple sentences.
Our tricky words are I, no, go, to, the, into.

Literacy
Our first story this half-term will be ‘I’m Going to Eat this Ant’. We will then move onto the story ‘Mouse House’, before reading ‘The Jolly Christmas Postman’ leading up to Christmas.
We will use these stories to develop our storytelling skills and also improve our writing in lots of different ways!
Maths
We will be continuing to strengthen our number knowledge by sequencing numbers and deciding what is one more and one less. We will also be looking at telling the time and will be finding out about money.
