14th Hayley’s Communication Activity

Morning all ECC parents,

Hayley is our ECC Communication Champion and she has set us a wonderful activity to do at home.

This is a communication activity for the children.  I have set up a teddy bears picnic with different food I found in the kitchen, I wrote out some letter to practice the initial sound! All children can have a go so weather they are having a conversation about their picnic, they can use their letter to write them themselves or write the words of the foods for the more advanced.  However for ones that are needing to practice their initial sounds there is a YouTube link to show parents how to pronounce the sound correctly.  Happy eating 🍽
