Phonics sessions online Every day, Monday to Friday, Read Write Inc will be uploading mini online lessons. These are what we call; speed sound sessions. The videos will support the children to learn new sounds and recap ones that they already know. The children will be very aware of the routines of the session as they are very similar to what we do in class and I am sure they will love joining in! Search Ruth Miskin phonics sounds on YouTube to find the videos. If you want to know which videos will be best for your child, email Miss Yates and Miss Riley on: eyfsparents@crablane.manchester.sch.uk
The videos look like this..

-------------------------Week Commencing 13.07.20
Hello Reception!!
This is the final week of our Summer 2 half-term which means we have come to the end of the academic year. And what a year it has been! From Christmas nativities to digging for fossils, Eureka trips to mini-beast hunts we have had an absolute ball and have learnt a lot along the way. The grown-ups in reception have truly loved teaching each and every single one of you and it has been such a pleasure and a privilege to work with you and see you develop and progress. We will miss you over the holiday and will look forward to lots of visits to year 1 next year to see how you are all getting along! For our final week of home learning we have put together some writing tasks that are all about end of year memories and preparing for next year. The maths activities are based upon the tricky teen numbers we sometimes get mixed up with in reception: 12, 13 and 15! See you all soon and keep safe and happy over the holidays :)
