It has been fantastic to welcome all of the new children into Reception Class. They have all settled in really well. Things have been going so well that we have started to go out onto the big playground for a playtime with Key Stage One on a morning. Also this week we have started Read, Write Inc sessions. We have started with the basic sounds this week so that we can find out what differing needs we have in our phonic learning. We will be whizzing through the alphabet, learning a sound a day. Today we looked at the letter 'M'and what sound it makes, which words start with it and how to write it correctly. Some children had a lovely time writing it in chalk on the playground.
