Reception Working from Home
Dear Parents/Carers,
During the school closures, we will be using Tapestry as our main form of daily communication, in which we will send you daily teaching/lessons and support. If you are not able to access Tapestry please ring the office or email reception@holytrinity.leeds.sch.uk and we will sort this for you.
Each day we will:
- Set one phonics lesson via Tapestry – we will send an observation/video which includes the days focus sound, words to blend including that sound, a sentence for your child to read including the focus sound and known tricky words. Each day we will model writing and then ask your child to write words, phrases or sentences. Where possible, please support your child with their formation, reminding them of the formation rhymes.
- Set one maths lesson via Tapestry – we will send a maths teaching video which will follow in learning sequence, model new learning , any misconceptions that may be expected and an activity for your child to complete. You can also utilise Mathletic, username and password were sent home before Christmas but please email reception@holytrinity.leeds.sch.uk if you are unable to log in. .
- Set weekly topic learning and activities – We will send an observation with topic learning and activities to complete, which support your child’s learning in all areas of learning including understanding the world and expressive arts and design. These will be linked to our topic ‘Dinosaurs’. We will also send one RE lesson per week inline with what we would be learning in school.
- Reading – We will send a fluency reading slide for each week. The aim is to read the same short paragraph everyday for the week to encourage sight reading and fluency. Your child will begin by blending to read and as they become familiar with it throughout the week they will become increasingly fluent. Please continue to read daily with your child using school reading books, stories you have at home and Oxford Owl e-books. These e-books are organised to support your child’s reading level, we would expect them to be reading between Level 1, Level 1+ or beginning level 2 at this stage of Reception. If you have any questions about oxford owl please email reception@holytrinity.leeds.sch.uk.

Supporting Collective Worship at home
Whilst we are away from school, we wanted to make sure our pupils and families still have the opportunity to take part and worship together. There will be a weekly video from Mrs Swann, a member of our Holy Trinity Church family and additional links which can be used to support Collective Worship at home.
