TRANSITION AFTERNOON DOCUMENTS
If your child is not in school, I thought you may find it useful to know some of the activities we will be doing with the small amount of children we do have in school. In the mornings, we will be doing the same 5 challenges that we are setting for you to do at home, but we will also by filling our time by:
- Playing outdoors on the bikes, chalking, dancing and making up imaginary games!
- Some PE activities, such as dancing, balancing, practising our throwing, catching, jumping and running skills. (no equipment)
- Playing with a small amount of plastic toys, such as mobilo, counting bears, little people and dinosaurs.
- Enjoying long outdoor snack times in the morning & afternoon.
- Enjoying lots of stories based around thoughts, ideas and feelings. (read by an adult)
- Looking at our daily calendar, where we fill in the day of the week, the weather and the timetable for each day.
- Show & Tell Sessions (about our daily ‘news’, what’s been happening at home, how we are feeling etc.)
- Singing songs, such as nursery rhymes and popular childrens songs, from our music book & from YouTube.
- Completing the '30 Days Wild' by the Wildlife Trust.
I’m sharing these to reassure you that you can do all of these things at home too!
Have fun and enjoy!

Documents for Parents: What to expect, when?
Below, I have attached two very useful documents for parents of children in Reception.
The first document is a guide to the EYFS, the Early Years Foundation Stage. This is the statutory framework for learning in Reception.
The second document is "What to expect, when?"
As teachers, we are looking that children are able to show elements in the 30-50 months and 40-60 months age bands in the Autumn term. Please scroll down to the age bands, and see if you can identify where your child may sit, and therefore how you might be able to support them at home with their learning.
