Reception children will come come today (13.03.24) with a sunflower seed! We have been learning all about the parts of the plant and what they need to grow. We would love for them to observe what happens to this seed as they plant it and care for it. If you wish to share any photos of this, please upload to EvidenceMe.

Important Information about the EYFS Curriculum

ELG for parents

From our long term progression document above we break the year down into smaller steps and link them directly to themes and core texts. Our curriculum was designed by Early Years staff, curriculum leaders and the Year 1 team to ensure a fluid transition between the Early Years and Year 1.

Staff refine and reflect upon Medium term plans frequently and will make changes to the documents as required. Please see our Curriculum webpage for Receptions' coverage documentation.

Maths

This term reception are learning to make and compare numbers to 5. The children will learn all of the different ways of composing numbers. For example, 3 and 2 make 5. You can practise this at home by playing games.

  • Show the child an amount of objects (up to 5) before hiding some. Then ask the child to say how many are hiding.
  • Show the child an amount of objects and ask them to count them. Ask them how many more they will need to make an amount (up to 5).
