Hello everyone.....

 

Hello Everyone, 

We have had a great week of settling back in, welcoming new friends and exploring our learning. 

Monday we played some great number games and started to look at the numerals.

We played some shopping games in the role play area. 

Tuesday we had great fun mark making in the shaving foam and seeing what patterns we could make and talked about them all using some great descriptive words.In the afternoon the children loved painting and sticking, making Bear faces out of paper plates.

Wednesday we had fun making some pictures at the drawing table. Before snack we did some great counting and sang some lovely number songs. In the afternoon we made some bears and played some number puzzles. 

Thursday we really enjoyed the story of Goldilocks before lunchtime. The children were very interested in the porridge and would like to try some next week! In the afternoon we did some bubble painting which was great fun and then we went to let off some steam in the soft play room. 

Friday morning the children were very interested in the water tray and explored the measuring and pouring resources. The shopping area was popular and there was lots of shopping to do! In the afternoon the children explored some different textures in the texture tray and went to play with some construction toys in the hall. 

Group Times have been really great and all of the children have been singing and copying some of the actions. The children have also really enjoyed some 1-1 reading time with Zoe and Chloe with books of their choice. It has been a great first week back with lots of learning experiences.

This Week we will be continuing with Goldilocks and we have more fun activities planned. We will also be starting to use the hall for our PE activities. I’m sure the children will love this.

This week we will talk about  ‘Our Families’ focusing on who is in our family and who is important to us. 

We will start to introduce ‘smelly socks’  can the children  match the two smells.

There are pairs of socks filled with different scented items.

Letters and Sounds 

This week we will continue to  be listening to environmental sounds outside in the garden. We will use our pipes to explore different sounds and see if we can make higher ones, longer, shorter together in groups.

Home Learning 

Can you please send in any Wow’s of your child exploring different sizes this could be while you are out and about or at home. 

We are going to be making a family board so it would be great if you could bring in a picture that we can put up in the classroom. 

Notices 

This week we will continue to send home our play library. If you have one at home  please bring it back when you are next in. We are also missing one of the booklets which was with the ducks game.  Please see link for video for information about this. https://www.facebook.com/POWFS/videos/1039096813302955

Due to the current Covid situation there will be NO STAY and PLAY SESSIONS at the moment.

We will soon be having our parents' information session. We will let you know when this is very soon. 

Looking forward to another great week together.
