Good morning Reception Class.  I hope that you enjoyed learning about Burns Night yesterday.  

Today we will continue to look at the story of Handa's Surprise.

Phonics for today -

Maths for today - 

I am learning to continue a repeating pattern. 

Biscuit Patterns - FUSE - Department of Education & Training 

Well done completing your repeating patterns yesterday.  Today you will be completing a similar task but will be looking at recognising the patterns more quickly.  I would like you to have a go at this activity - ARTHUR | Games . Planet Pal | PBS KIDS  See how you get on.  Can you complete the game on the fast setting? 

Literacy/Topic

I am learning to write a sentence. 

Today we will be looking at all of the fruits which Handa carries in her basket.  Which of these fruits have you tried before?  What did they taste like?  Today we will be looking at fruits and describing them, just like in the story.  We will be completing observational drawings of fruit.  You can use any fruit that you have in the house (or vegetables). Once you have drawn this, think about words which describe the fruit and write a sentence about it.

Watch Me Too! Eat your greens. 

Look at each food group in turn and ask them to think about why some sections of the Eatwell Guide's plate are bigger than others (these are designed to represent the proportion of different foods we should aim to eat each day to keep healthy).
