​ This week in Reception, the children have been learning about 'size and weight.' They have enjoyed different stories about measures too. They have measured the length of different objects, measured our heights and used balance scales to investigate the weight of different objects. They have used these words: enormous, heaviest, longest, shortest, enormous, massive, huge.

What a busy week we have had! The Reception children have been busy learning about 'food'. They have been stirring, sieving, pouring, mixing, kneading and spreading. The children enjoyed making jam sandwiches and making bread rolls. Thank you to our volunteer Debbie who helped us to make the bread.

​This week, In Reception, we have been focusing on the concepts of 'family' and 'home'. We have been talking about our own homes and who lives there with us. Look at these amazing block structures of different types of home we made! We have had to show patience and perseverance.
