” ABC and beyond is our early years literacy program we are introducing this year.It builds on and extends our literacy studies from last year. We choose a book to look closely focusing on different aspects in more detail such as conversation, vocabulary, story comprehension, language of learning, print knowledge and phonological awareness. This term we willl be focusing on new vocabulary by picking out 5 words to discuss. we will be using props, drama, songs, pictures, evplainations and art/craft to help reinforce these words. Our first story is called Bears Snores On- a story about a bear who is hibernating while other animals sneak in his cave and have a party. Our focus words are: hibernate, cave, nibble, flutter and slumbering. If you use these words at home too to reinforce them we would really appreciate your help and support.
