On this page, you will find ideas to help EY/Reception pupils learn at home.
Are you feeling worried about something?
With everything that is happening at the moment, it is perfectly normal to be worried. If there are things which are making you feel sad, angry or upset then there are people you can talk to and some wonderful resources to help you.
We have compiled some links and techniques to help you cope with any emotions you are struggling with at home but please talk to us in school.
Do some dough disco to build your finger strength. You can use the link or show your family how to do it by making up your own song.
Build up your co-ordination with some of these fun workouts with Andy. You might even find out interesting information you didn't know about animals that you want to tell your teachers. You can draw and write anything you want to share into your notebook.

**Please note, children may not want to do these activities all at once. We recommend that you spread them across the day for the best results.**

Spellings
Spelling is a key skill that your child will need to use in daily life. Spelling aids reading and helps consolidate the connection between sounds and letters. Learning high frequency sight words has also been shown to help with both reading and writing.
From Reception onwards, each year group or phase has a selection of words that we call our non-negotiables - words that we expect every child in that year group to learn before the end of the year or phase. As many of our children are currently learning at home, we have created specific spelling home learning projects to help them learn how to spell these words. Within these home learning projects, there are a range of engaging activities that will support your child to learn these spellings.
Multiplication and Division
Times tables are an essential aspect of mathematics. Knowing the times tables (and their associated division facts) supports mathematical learning and understanding of new concepts. We have created a project which focuses on a strategy based approach. This means that children will be exploring a range of methods in which they can use to learn about times tables. This would build understanding by focusing on connections in order to support retrieval and application of times tables.
