Pre-School-Literacy-Story Map

In literacy, we’ve been enjoying We’re Going on a Bear Hunt. The children worked together to create a story map, marking out the key events from beginning to end. Everyone added their own part, drawing the moment they remembered came next in the story. They were completely absorbed in the task, and it sparked lots of rich vocabulary. I was really impressed with how much they could recall.

Reception Maths: Exploring 4 and 5

Our children have been getting to know the numbers 4 and 5 through lots of practical work. The photo shows them deep in conversation, comparing finger patterns, building sets with cubes and counters, and using numicon to spot number arrangements. There was plenty of talk around the table as they checked their counting, noticed patterns and explained how they knew they had the right amount. Activities like these help them see number in different forms and build real confidence with early counting. It’s lovely to see how much teamwork and focus they bring to these sessions.

Year 1 PE: Tracking the ball

This week in PE, Year 1 focused on developing the vital skill of tracking the ball. This involves using both their eyes and their body to follow the ball's movement . Each child had to defend their net against an opponent trying to score, which meant constantly keeping their eyes on the ball, anticipating where it was going, and using quick body movements to successfully intercept or block the shot. The children demonstrated great effort in staying balanced and reacting quickly to the path of the ball, which is a key skill for many sports!
