Hi there,
Just got my DD's reception report and was so thrilled and proud to read about how hard she tries, how kind she is, and so on :) She was given three 'exceedings' (in reading, managing behaviour and listening), and all the rest 'expected'. I know the levels should be taken with a pinch of salt and that the most important thing is she's progressing, and I'm thrilled that there is nothing we need to worry about.
However, I do feel that DH and I are much better placed to support her with her literacy skills - we put lots of effort into the reading, and it has showed.
We do much less mathsy stuff with her - and in February we were told she was doing brilliantly in maths and on track for 'exceeding' by the end of the year. She was really keen on it at that point, and we were doing mathletics at home (which she loved). I lost the login when I changed my laptop at Easter, and have asked school a couple of times but they haven't sent it to me. Should have pestered more.
Not worried about the maths at all, but would love to know what people do at home to support maths and make it fun - games, apps, etc. Don't want her to lose interest just because we focus too much on one thing than another.
Thanks!
