Then we will be covering 'Meesha and Friends' linked to PSHE. We will then be covering 'Funny Bones' linked to Science and PSHE. Our final book is 'Pumpkin Soup' linked to DT and we will be going on our first school trip to collect pumpkins. We also will be starting our phonics curriculum which we follow Phonics Shed. We will be starting on recapping Chapter 1 for the first week. Then for the rest of the term we will be starting Chapter 2 sets 1-4 meeting all of the new characters linked to the letters. Week 3 of the term we will be starting our Whiterose maths journey by looking at matching and sorting objects, looking at measurements and patterns and 1,2,3. 

Each Peach Pear Plum

The first week of reception has been about learning the routine, boundaries and expectations. We have settled in with our adult input sessions, child initiated learning time and our lunch time. We also explored the book with creating pies, making ingredient lists and talking about our favourite fruits.
