Matching and sorting!

 This week we have been looking closely and noticing similarities and differences. We have matched pairs of wellies, sorted objects by size and colour and tried to say if a group has more than another!

Why don't you help with the laundry this weekend and see if you can match all the pairs of socks together? Or make sure all the shoes in your house are matched into pairs? See if you can explain to someone at home why you know that two objects are the same or different! 




Harvest time!

 The Reception children have made a fantastic start in the garden this week, helping to harvest some of the vegetables that were planted last year! We found so many beans on our giant beanstalks and had a great time searching for potatoes hidden underground! What shall we make with them?!
