It has been a great week in Reception!
This week, children have been learning about 1 more and 1 less as key concepts in Mathematics. We have been using physical objects on five frames to show what 1 more or 1 less than a number to 5 is.
For our Reception project, children have been thinking carefully about the power of music on our emotions. Learners have been talking about and experiencing different genres of music and communicating how it makes them feel. Children have also been learning how to represent music in abstract ways such as drawing how music changes.
