Autumn 1: AMAZING ME!
This half term we have been incredibly busy learning the new routines and expectations for Reception. Our first few weeks in school were full of smiles and learning about our new friends and work. We have started our Phonics lessons with ELS and are enjoying how this is opening so many doors for us as we are now all reading our own books! As part of our first topic we are all enjoying sharing facts about ourselves and the people we live with. We have shared our likes and dislikes, things we are proud of ourselves for, who is in our family and what makes us happy. It has been lovely to see the children grow in confidence in sharing with the class each week and learn about each other. We have spent lots of time discussing how we are all different, and how this makes us uniquely special. We have interwoven this with learning about Hill Top's 5C values and are looking to see if we can identify the values in school.
