Reception Home Learning Week beginning 6th July
Welcome back to everyone at home and to those children who are coming into school and working at home – you are amazing!
We are revisiting the lifecycle of a frog this week as Mrs Whitestone brought some tadpoles into school and the Nightingales and Hargreaves that are in have been keeping a close eye on them! We have watched them change into tiny frogs! We have a fantastic story to read about a tadpole and have found a video of the story for you to watch at home too.
We will be continuing with the same maths work again this week but we are going to the grocery shop and will be able to choose between some treats and healthy items. We spend so long on this to help the children to apply the skills that we have been learning throughout the year. There are 3 different levels of sheets to work on this week for A B and C – if you child is finding things too easy or too hard then please have a look at one of the other groups.
Please do let us know how you are getting on at home, even if it is just once a week.
Here is what the children will be doing this week:

You need to register, but it is free, and there are 100s of decodable books on this site.
General – https://www.thenational.academy/online-classroom/reception. The Oak Academy is a national online teaching website providing lessons and resources for all primary aged children. You can pick a maths and literacy lesson to complete each day. More lessons are added each week.
The BBC also has lessons online but they do not cover the Early Years curriculum as well as The Oak Academy

Also a good site that we use in school, especially for maths, is Topmarks

The children in Mrs O’Hagan and Mrs Tucker’s groups will be doing this work this week. The children in the Key Worker group will be doing similar work but you can use this to supplement their work if they are not in school every day.
