Chinese New Year

Hello Everyone,

This week we will be learning all about the Chinese New-Year.  We will be making decorations, listening to Chinese music and seeing how they like to celebrate the year of the dog.

We will also be baking, starting work on our Water topic where we have lots of fun activities planned.

We hope you have had a great half term and had some lovely times together.

Letters and Sounds

This week we will be listening to different instruments and describing how they sound. We will be seeing if we can use our own voices loud and soft by following simple instructions and visual clues.

We will do some recall of the other activates and encouraging the children to work as a group.

Jigsaw

The children have been enjoying their group time discussions. We will be recalling our holiday news and getting the children to draw a picture of something they can remember from the week off. We will be proudly entering this into their ‘Learning Journey’s’

This is to help reinforce Personal, Social and Emotional Development and help them to make life choices.

Home Learning

Please continue to bring in any WOW moments and remember you can always email through photos and we can write stick them in your child’s Learning Journey. I’m sure you will all bring in one with a holiday ‘Wow’

If they have been very helpful or kind we would love to hear about it.

Looking forward to a busy and exciting time leading up to Easter with lots of new learning planned.

Can’t wait to see you all on Monday
