Reception Learning Highlights Our Reception children have been busy exploring Troll Stinks! and have loved diving into the story together. They created thoughtful messages for the troll, using their ideas and kindness to solve problems in the story In phonics, the children focused on identifying the 'ar' sound, spotting it in their own names and familiar words To link with our story, the children designed and made boats to help cross the bridge . They then investigated floating and sinking, testing their creations and sharing what they discovered through hands-on exploration What a fantastic week of creativity, phonics, and learning through play well done Reception!
