Autumn 1 - Reception Rules!

Reception Rules!

Rationale: After becoming settled and familiar with the classroom routines, a new member of the class arrives. Her name is Flora the Flamingo and she is unsure how to behave at school. The children are challenged to teach Flora how to be a responsible, kind and friendly member of the class. During the project, they will learn the four key Reception Rules alongside our CIRCLE values. They will show their parents how to learn in Reception through a stay and play session and how to be an amazing St Mark's pupil, where Reception does indeed 'rule'!

 

Hook: New class member Flora arrives in a hot air balloon in the playground.

Mrs Wright found a hot air balloon crashed in the playground. As it was raining she brought it into the hall. Together we discovered there was a flamingo inside! The note told us that her name is Flora and asked if she could stay with us. We have promised to teach her how to be a Reception pupil.

Flora told us about her home and we shared with her about ours. We then made models of our homes.

Walking feet

Mrs Jones found Flora running in the corridor. She had fallen over. We learnt our first rule 'walking feet'.
