Hi All

Please find work for Reception children in the Home Learning file below, Please also check Tapestry regularly as we will upload challenges and activity ideas on there and will communicate with you and your children via Tapestry.

Isolation is very difficult for all of us and it is especially hard for children to understand and adjust to what is happening. I have attached a link in the home learning file that is a short animation that explains COVID-19 to children. The most important thing is that your child feels happy, safe and secure at home and with the situation.

Reception children will get so much out of spending quality time with parents and partaking in activities such as baking, gardening and play. If possible it would help your child to read with them daily and recap Phase 2 and Phase 3  phonic sounds. Half an hour a day would make a huge difference. Children also need to be confident with their numbers 1-20 and 'know them inside out'. Fifteen mins on maths a day. It doesn't have to be formal  it could be a game or activity for example a game of snakes and ladders uses number recognition, counting, forwards and backwards and skills such as turn taking. Please check the Home Learning file for further advice on Phonics, reading writing and maths.

Remember to have fun and take some time to relax and enjoy family time. Stay home, stay safe and keep washing those hands.
