Newsletter WE 20th May

Dear Parents,

It's been a very busy week! Here is a round up of what we've been up to!

Children's interests

We have been focusing on our children's ideas and questions in relation to their interests.  At the moment most of the children are expressing an interest in looking after babies and superheroes.

The children are also interested in looking after babies.  We have recorded their questions on our 'Working Wall'.  There are also lots of photos and children's quotes here.  Please come in and have a look next week.  It is in the role play area.

Afternoon Groups

The children have been learning to identify rhyming words and have been making 'silly soup' with all the rhyming words they have been learning.  In Maths, the children have been learning to count objects in a group. In Ms Clarissa's groups the children have continued to focus on expressing their emotions constructively.

Physical Development

The children explored their super powers in the gym.    They jumped as high and as far as they could and ran as fast as they could!

In the big playground, the children asked to play on the Supernova and climbing frame and they also practised bouncing balls.

On Wednesday afternoons, we usually play parachute games.  Please have a look at the videos.  We all have so much fun!

Other Learning

In preparation for learning Phonics in F3, we have been reading and acting out lots of nursery rhymes this week.  We will continue with this next week.

How you can help at home

You could ask your children in the following questions:

-Do you have a favourite superhero?  What's his/her name?

-Why do you like...?

-What super powers does he/she have?

-If you were a superhero, what super powers would you have?

These questions can be asked in your child's home language.  Please could you let us know what your children say as we would love to add their responses to our working wall.
