We will be starting our Big Idea in Reception by looking at our own houses and comparing.

We will be looking at different rooms and describing what we do in those rooms. The dolls house will be out to play with and we will be making houses using shapes.

We will be building houses and using bricks in playdough to do some brick work. Get your builder hats on!

If you are happy to do so, please send a picture of the front of your home to m.taylor@meadowsideacademy.org

You are all doing a super job at settling into school. I am so proud of you all.

If you are feeling worried, scared, frustrated, angry or uncomfortable, remember you can use some of our mindful techniques. I have added some videos below that we use in the classroom to develop mindfulness and help us return to our calm and happy selves. You can do these at home…you could even do these techniques with your family.
