Mini beasts

2nd May 2016

This week we are going to finish our theme by making a group mini beast picture, using our hide and seek book for inspiration. We are also going to use ladybird templates  to count  and group dots, and also in craft activities .
Our books this week will be the same as last week, the 'Shark in the park', ' Shark in the park on a windy day' and Shark in the dark'. We will be using these books along with our 'oi frog' book to concentrate on listening, rhyming and alliteration.
At home alliteration is fun, instead of saying a simple word , alliterate!, for example,
'go and get your c-o-a-t.,   c-a-t ,  c-a-r,   etc, and see if your child can tell you what the word is. Simple words are best and easier to guess.
Lots more gardening and outside play to explore and enjoy so fingers crossed for some warm weather.

Mr Butcher our site manager is away for 2 weeks so the pool will have to close, that is followed by our beach trip, then after our return from half term school transition afternoons start for Prince of wales school, so we will not have much swimming time. I will be looking at the timetable with Alex to try and fit in swimming where we can.
Thank you all for the lovely family pictures, so many of the children have been looking at the pictures with their friends, talking about families and who is in their family. It's not too late if you want to bring in a picture of your family for our display.
