Silver Birch (Reception)

Welcome back to another term in Silver Birch!
 
We have two first year students with us who will be teaching small group and whole class sessions under the supervision of Miss Jones and Miss Ferber. They are Miss Oakley and Miss Ridgewell.
 
This term our topic is all about Traditional Tales and story telling. We will start by looking at The Three Bears where we will be making puppets, porridge and learning to re tell the story. Next we will look at Princess Smartypants and challenge gender stereotypes through clothing, toys and activities as well as using the text 'Pearl Power'.
 
Finally we will look at The Gingerbread Man and write our own versions using the familiar repetitive pattern of the story.
  
We will continue with our 'Sounds Write' programme and are now learning to read and write words with 4 sounds in them (CVCC)
 
Our maths learning is focusing on doubling and using tens frames to represent numbers 11-20.
 
As always if you have any questions, do ask!
 
Thank you,
 
The Reception Team
