Reception Home Learning Week starting: Monday 27th April 2020

I hope you all had a good weekend. Thank you for all the home learning reports and pictures sent to me last week. It is great

to see the children happy and healthy at home.

Below is this week’s home learning set out into days for you. Remember you don’t need to cover everything. Suggested times

are in brackets alongside each activity, but you know your child, so please feel free to change this if necessary. They may want

to do it for longer, or it may not take as long – be guided by them. You can do the activities in any order and don’t forget to

allow time for lots of learning breaks.

I will be changing the reading books in school on Tuesday. Come and get your reading books. It would be nice to see you.

Best wishes, Ms Harris
