Pumpkins

Hello everyone,

We hope you all had a wonderful half term and look forward to hearing all about what you have been doing during half term.

This week we will be reading some pumpkin stories including Pumpkin Soup By Helen Copper. We will be making our own pumpkin soup to try at pre-school. We will be using our children knives to cut the pumpkin up for our soup. We have got some pumpkins to cut up and carve and explore whats inside the pumpkin. We will using different tools to do the including knives, spoons and tweezers. 
We will be playing some number board games this week in small groups. 

Home learning

Next week we will be doing some activities involving recognising our name. Over the week it would be fantastic if your child could find advertising logos they recognise in their environment. For example the Lidi sign or the McDonald sign. You may like to take a photo of it, drew it or cut out a picture.

Letters and sounds:- This week we will be playing a game of rhyming soup as a group. We will be finding words that rhyme together for our soup e.g. rat and bat.
