Spring learning in Reception


Tuesday 3rd January 2023
Sounds!
This week Reception learned about sounds as part of their mini-adventure ‘The Show’. We talked about loud and quiet sounds and tried to keep a beat.
Then we used sticks to make loud and quiet sounds on things we found outside. We made some amazing sounds!
Finally we made our own instruments and sang some songs keeping the beat with our shakers.
Monday 31st October
Reception Trip to the Mandir Baba Balak Temple
We visited the temple as part of our Faith Trail mini adventure. The children were finding out that different people have different Special Places and celebrate different Special Occasions with their families. We were learning about Diwali and the story of Rama and Sita. We learned how Sikhs and Hindus celebrate this special time.
The temple visit allowed the children to understand what a Special Place is for some people, what a temple looks like, what can be found inside and why these are special to Sikhs and Hindus. The also compared this to their own special places and their own celebrations.
