Transport

We are discussing different types of transport this week eg planes, trains, boats, cars etc
It's always good to hear the children relating their experiences of using any of them, and we'd welcome any wow moments you'd like to share with us.

As well as related small world play, we'll be using different sizes of wheels to paint and create patterns. This gives an opportunity to identify sizes, shape and colours.

At story time we'll talk about the noises trains, motorbikes etc make as we make the actions.

There will be toy car washing in the water tray and racing cars on the wooden ramp, as we talk about fast and slow, counting as we go. In the kitchen we'll be making shortbread, again linked into our topic.

Just a note to say that your child's name card on their peg may change position on some days, as we swap them round due to the increase in numbers, and limited number of pegs.
We think that this is a good opportunity though for the children to look for and identify their name!
