Please can anyone share with me some of the topics they do with their Reception Class

 

Mine have included

 

My school

Nursery Rhymes

Ourselves

Growth of plants and animals

Fairy Tales

Transport.

 

 

i would like some inspiration on how to jazz them up a bit

 

swap some of them for other ideas e.g.

 

under the sea/water

 

Light: to include celebrations etc

 

Just woundering what other people out there do.

 

i am quiet new to Reception and the topics are in need of some creativity and KUW help

 

 

Please can anyone Help

 

Thanks

We do two topics per term but are flexible and will add topics (go off in a tangent) if the children show interesting in other things :rolleyes:for example we did a week on pirates to accommodate a child who had to wear an eye patch and was feeling 'different' so we made eye patches compulsory for small world and role play

 

We also work on a 2 year rolling programme.

 

topics include

Ourselves

colour / light / sound

water and weather

nursery rhymes

under the sea

in the jungle

people who help us

mini beasts

 

and now ive gone blank

Hi and welcome to the forum. You will find that there are plenty of topics on planning and various themes. You can use the 'search forum posts' button on the top right of the page to access lots of ideas. You might need to put aside a week to get through them all though. Happy reading.

This is my first time trying to reply, it all looks really scary! Here it goes! If your topic is bears we had a great school trip, we took our reception classes to @The Bear Factory@ in town where they let us choose a bear and the children watched how it was made. Then we went to the library to listen to bear stories. It was a fantastic morning out and cost hardly anything!
