Assalamu'alaikum warakhmatullahi wabarakatahu,
Welcome to our reception class here at Ilm Primary School.
We aim to provide a wonderful learning environment for the children in the Foundation Phase, that is full of care, fun and excitement! We have many enjoyable activities, learning experiences and learn through a variety of exciting topics in reception class. We’ll be learning and memorising essential prophetic duaa’s and will be praying Dhuhr salaat in congregation on a daily basis, in sha Allah.
We are so excited to have you all on board!
Autumn 2 'Fantasy World'
IQRA! Read, read, read is our motto in spring term one! We'll explore various fairy tales and fiction books through our new topic 'Fantasy World'. We'll look at rhythm and rhymes and try to string some rhyming words together. Fi fo fo fum... We'll venture into the land of amazing alliteration and create our very own too. Baking gingerbread men will be heaps of fun in-line with our T4W story 'The Gingerbread Man', we'll try and eat them before they run away! Our role play area will convert into a bakery with numerous treats to bake and sell.
In maths we'll explore odd and even numbers by making pairs and make and find doubles. We'll compare mass and length. Revisit 1 more, 1 less and number composition. We'll look at the passing of time and use the concept of time in terms of our daily activities and look at how long tasks take.
We’ll be exploring our outdoor, literacy, maths and investigation areas with a variety of activities to keep us busy with independent and enhanced learning. We have lots to discover and learn.
