This week a spaceship landed in Foundation Stage's playground!

We talked about who it might be? Why they were there? and what did they want? We also made predictions about what the alien might've looked like. 

We then found a book called BEEGU. In the story, there was an alien named BEEGU and her spaceship had crashed into Earth! BEEGU couldn't speak our language so we sent her letters filled with phonic sounds to help her. We also used the junk modelling area to build her a new spaceship!

We have been doing lots of other space themed activities. We made aliens from play dough, made spaceship cupcakes and have even explored what happened when we poured water onto a bath bomb planet!

Outside we have been doing super mark making....

 

 

 

and have enjoyed playing lots of games! 

This week Reception took part in Junior Chef. They all really enjoyed chopping up thier ingrediants to make their delicious rice salad!

Zog and the Flying Doctors

This week Recpetion have been acting out the story 'Zog and the Flying doctors'. We have been using puppets to retell the story and they have had lots fun replacing the character Zog with their own creatures that they have made! 

We also made a friendship web, the children had to pass the wool to one of their friends and say why they are a good friend. The children worked as a team and we talked about how important it is to work together.

Autumn in Reception

Autumn fruit pictures

The children used Autumn colours and apples and pears to print with.

Practicing our writing

The children used large paper and chunky pens to practice writing their letters and holding their pens correctly. 

The children decided to play school and were taking the register and doing their phonics. 

Helping us to get strong arms for writing.

The children lay on their tummys and had to keep their arms straight to draw large circles with. This helps develop their shoulder and upper arm strength.
