Spring

Hello Everyone,

We have had a very creative week making some special gifts which I hope the parents have enjoyed. The children worked really hard on these and did lots of mark making which was good to see.

This week we will be looking at ‘spring’ and the changes that take place during this time.  We will do some planting in the garden and plant some cress seeds.

Letters and Sounds

This week we will be having ‘listening moment’s’ during the day. We will be using a sand timer to time how long we are going to listen for. Then we are going to report back to the class what noises we heard. The children will model each of the sounds.

We will also introduce ‘Mrs Browning has a box’ we sing a song and add in a different sound from behind a box and the children have to guess what it is.

Jigsaw

We will be continuing to have discussions at group times throughout the day. We will be discussing that we are all different and looking at the differences of animals we have seen out and about.

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

Home Learning 

Thank you so much for sharing all of your snow photos and sending in lots of Wow’s with them. If you could bring in or email any pictures of your pets we can add these to our board as we are looking at differences between animals.

Thank you all for taking time out to come to parent’s evenings, we were really pleased to share with you your child’s progress.
