Expressive Arts and Design

Our Early Learning Goals for the end of Reception are:

Creating with Materials

• Safely use and explore a variety of materials, tools and techniques, experimenting with colour, design, texture, form and function.

• Share their creations, explaining the process they have used.

• Make use of props and materials when role playing characters in narratives and stories.

Being Imaginative and Expressive

• Invent, adapt and recount narratives and stories with peers and their teacher.

• Sing a range of well-known nursery rhymes and songs.

• Perform songs, rhymes, poems and stories with others, and (when appropriate) try to move in time with music.
