farm to fork

This week we join the school to explore and learn with the topic 'farm to fork'.
With Reception we have chosen to focus on honey and bees using the book Honey Biscuits' by Meridith Hooper.
Some of the activities planned include planting seeds to grow flowers to attract bees this summer, making honey biscuits and honey sandwiches, making bees and printing with hexagonal shapes.

For this week our next steps as a group will use the book to focus on sequencing a story, and the order of a recipe. ( L and CL ) . Also sequencing and pattern making (MD)
SOUNDS AND LETTERS next steps will be listening for initial sounds in words.

We will also be making patterns using hexagons, Can you find a picture of a hexagon at home ? and bring it in to pre school to share.

JIGSAW. We will be reflecting on the past half term  and thinking of what we have achieved this term, from the children's learning, exploring, activities and play we will have observed the children's achievements and will be able to encourage them to think about what they have achieved.

Last week the children did so well working as teams to complete tasks such as cooking, and playing shape games, sharing skills and learning new ones together.

Remember the next steps as a group is a general way we are moving forward, we also plan next steps for your child as individuals or in small groups.

Don't forget we break up for half term on Friday, and very importantly its our BINGO NIGHT on Friday. Times and details have been sent to you all, and a cake or cakes to sell for the refreshments would be much appreciated.
Happy half term after another buzzy ( !!) week at pre school.
