Reception Summer 2 Suggested Learning Activities

Reception Half-term: Summer 2 Theme: Once Upon a Time In EYFS, we believe that this is the start of our journey where we build relationships with yourselves as a family. As part of this relationship, we have provided a new menu of suggested learning activities for your child to complete with you during this half term. These activities can be brought back into school and shared as part of ‘show and tell’ sessions, where we can encourage children to communicate in front of their peers as part of our drive to improve children’s speaking and listening at an early age. These are not compulsory but will support your child’s learning and development in school & we would appreciate your support. Children in Nursery and Reception will also bring home a library book each week to share at home with an adult. As you will appreciate, reading is fundamental to a child’s progress in all areas of the curriculum and therefore we expect all children to be reading at home regularly with an adult each week. Reception children will bring a reading book home once they have learnt the first set of sounds. This will be a Sound Blending book and will match the sounds they have already been taught in school. Children should read this book daily to an adult at home. Once they can read this book confidently, they will move on to the next book. We can’t wait to see your work!
