Our topic this half term is 'Delicious' and in our literacy lessons the children have been looking at recipe books and learning about the features of non-fiction texts. We have been writing a set of instructions for a Chocolate Mug Cake and of course once we had done this, we had to make the Mug Cake! The children were fantastic at following our set of instructions, and all agreed our cake was delicious!
This week has been a busy one in Reception with lots of different activities going on. A highlight this week has been learning about Bonfire Night and when it is celebrated. We learnt that we celebrate Bonfire Night because in 1605, a man called Guy Fawkes and his friends decided to try and blow up the English government, along with King James 1. We celebrate to remember his plot failed with fireworks. We made our own firework pictures and challenged ourselves to use our phonics to write 'explosion' words like 'bang, fizz, twirl and pop'. In Reception we are 'writers!'
