Reception 2021 - 2022

Happy 2022!!

Welcome back after a lovely break. We hope you are all well and ready for the New Year.

We are delighted to be welcoming a new member to our Reception Team. Mrs Moore will be covering Mrs Brammar's class on a Thursday and the Mrs Wilson's class on a Friday. Mrs Moore is an Early Years Teacher who worked at Vernon before and is very excited to be returning.

Please ensure your child has a named P.E kit with them for this term. We do P.E every Friday. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Kind regards Mrs Brammar & Mrs Wilson.

Little Wandle - Letters and Sounds Synthetic Phonics Programme

We teach phonics using the 'Little Wandle Letters and Sounds' synthetic systematic programme within schoo and this term will be teaching phase 3 which teaches the diagraphs ai, ee, igh, oa, oo, ar, ur, ow, oi, ear, air & er.  We have displayed the phase 3 grapheme information sheets on the windows outside our classrooms to provide information linked to the pronunciation and formation of each phoneme for your reference. These sheets are also avaliable along with a grapheme mat on this class page, should you wish to print them off and use them to help consolidate your child's understanding at home. We will also be uploading the new phonemes which your child will be learning weekly on Tapestry. We hope you find these useful and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. 

We have also uploaded the number formation rhymes we teach the children in school to support any additional learning at home.

Thank you for continued support,

Mrs Brammar and Mrs Wilson
