Reception 2025 - 2026
Mrs Bradley
Welcome to Reception!
Attached is an overview of our learning for this half term in Reception, along with the sounds and tricky words that we are learning.
We will continue to engage in Drawing Club sessions to develop our mark making and early writing skills. This half term, we will be continuing to develop our letter formation (using the Little Wandle phrases to help us) and we will be taking part in daily handwriting sessions. We will be using our phonics learning to help us write captions and simple sentences.
Reading regularly at home remains incredibly important - it helps children to develop fluency, prosody and strengthens their comprehension skills. Please do record reading activities within your child's reading diary.
We do hope that the information provided is useful. If you do have any questions or concerns, or require any further information, please feel free to get in touch - our door is always open.
Kind regards,
Mrs Bradley, Mrs Gardner and Mrs Berrisford.
