Welcome to Reception – Kristiansen Class

Reception class is named Kristiansen (LEGO) Class after Ole Kirk Kristiansen.

He was a Danish carpenter. In 1932, he founded the construction toy company The Lego Group.

Over the course of his working life, Kristiansen developed his business from a small wood-working shop that sold household products into a wooden toy manufacturer.

In 1934, he named the company Lego and invented plastic Lego bricks following the purchase of a plastic moulding injection machine in 1947.

The name LEGO is an abbreviation of the two Danish words “leg godt”, meaning “play well”.

Lego in Latin meant ‘I study’, or ‘I put together.’

Week commencing 06-02-2023

This week we will be continuing the ‘Dear Zoo’ story theme and will be learning about tigers. We will be looking at the environment in which they live and we will be starting to make resources for our own jungle/animal park so any boxes/junk modeling resources would be greatly appreciated!

In maths, the children will be identifying 1 more and 1 less.

The children are working really hard in phonics. They will be learning the two phonemes made by oo (the u sound as in book and also an oo sound as in moon). So oo can make both these sounds in different words.

Tuesday is internet safety day-We will be discussing the key messages “If I feel worried about anything, I can tell an adult I trust”. Before you tap and click…You need to stop and think… and tell someone.

It is Children’s Mental Health Week. At Niton School for PSHE, we follow the SCARF -Safety, Caring, Achievement, Resilience, Friendship scheme. To raise awareness of the importance of Children’s mental health your child will be completing activities to support the SCARF values. On Friday 10th February your child is welcome to wear their scarf to school as part of ‘Wear your Scarf to school day.’

Also on Friday 10th February at 2.30 there will be the third writing workshop for Reception children. We hope you can join us again to assist your child as they write super sentences. The children love it! The children are looking forward to writing again with you!
