Reception
Curriculum Map
Ready Steady Grow
In the Ready Steady Grow project, your child will take part in practical activities to explore where food comes from. They will learn what seeds and plants need to grow and grow a variety of plants. In English lessons, the children will read and explore the text, ‘The Extraordinary Gardener’. Reception children will explore what is meant by a healthy lifestyle, including eating fruit and vegetables, exercise and teeth brushing. They will also find out about life on a farm and about baby animals.
Supporting your child at home:
- Visit your local library and find books about farms to share.
- Make a shopping list together and go to the shops to buy the food.
- Grow some quick growing plants or make a cress head.
- Talk about healthy foods.
