Reception have had so much fun with their learning this week. Our topic has been "Transport", with a focus on boats to follow the children's interests.
We have also been exploring letter and name recognition, which we have incorporated into our activities. We have gone on treasure hunts at the ''beach'' to find our letter for our names, and used our fine motor skills to create tracks for the boats. Some of us were able to write letters for the boats to drive around.
We constructed our own boats using junk modelling, and we tested them in water to see which ones sank and which ones floated. It was so much fun! We have also enjoyed watching the builders with their big diggers, which has prompted lots of questions and discussions from the children about tractors, how things work and what the different tools are used for.
