Sarah’s 12th Nurture Story for you all

Hi everyone!  I wanted to share this story with you, it’s a really lovely child-friendly way of explaining how mixed up our emotions may feel during this time, and links nicely into the work we have been doing in the ECC around Emotional Literacy.

Lucy in the story has magical hair which turns colour to match the emotion she is feeling.  When she is happy, it turns yellow, when she is jealous it turns green.  And one day when she wakes up, her hair is blue and she isn’t sure why.  Watch the story, then have a chat with your wee one about the different colours, and what emotions could be linked to them, what might cause those emotions etc (there are no right or wrong answers – all discussion will help develop understanding).  Being able to verbalise feelings and giving them the language to do this, is a step towards understanding them and in turn being able to self-regulate and control our emotions, which is important for our ability to learn in a classroom, and just get by in life!

Hope you enjoy the video, I also have the sequel story, Lucy in Lockdown, which I cant wait to read to you all next week 😊

Hello boys and girls so I thought I’d make home learning a little bit more exciting and I thought how about we all try and win some points for our key groups at nursery!
So here is my challenge for today…

I want you to choose one of my 4 indoor scavenger hunt lists to do and today I want to see how quickly you can collect all the items on your list….

Send in your times that it took to complete with how many items you found and the person with the quickest time wins 20 points for their key group! The person in second place wins 10 points and in 3rd place wins 5 points!

Monday 11th Plans

Hello all ECC parents,

This is the learning plans for our day one of home learning that will begin tomorrow at 9.30am. I will upload the home learning ideas the day before so you know what you need for home learning that day to make it easier for you all.

Anything i upload from Twinkl is for you to print if you can, however i have tried to use materials that you can show then and do on a screen or recreate easily in person.

These activities are all to do at your own pace, with no pressure to complete all. They are to suit a range of learners in a variety of curricular areas with a mix of challenge for more able learners and simpler for younger children. If as a parent there is anything in particular you want please email myself and i ill do my best to do.

The structure and types of things i will upload reflects a typical nursery session, please remember 2-5 children’s learning is focused on play based learning, play and real life experiences are what children need at this young age to learn along with high quality adult communication and interaction!

The structure i present is to hopefully allow you some routine to your day….we would typically start with

  • Breakfast/freeplay
  • Welcome time which i will upload for 9.30 everyday which will get uploaded on a sway link with story/song/Makaton attached for that day.
  • Learning activities/play which i will upload the day before for convenience
  • Snack which i recommend to give you some quality time chatting and a break from learning
  • song/ Makaton which will get uploaded on a sway link
  • story/Makaton which will get uploaded on a sway link
  • health and wellbeing activity. which will get uploaded for the week on a sway link. Choose one a day.
  • Ask your child what they enjoyed let me know what they liked or struggled with. Take pictures. Send them to myself for the blog. Have fun. Play. Be kind to yourselves. Look after yourselves.

If there are any issues please let me know, and i would as always appreciate some feedback for parents about how you are finding our first week home learning to ensure you are happy with everything provided. Thank you so much love Leanne S x
