Mrs Cotton would like to say a big thank you to everyone who donated supermarket items. The role play area is now up and running and the children are very eager to explore various roles. We don’t need anymore supermarket items as we have our supermarket fully stocked up with goodies and plenty of items left to replenish as we go. We would still however welcome donations of trollies or baskets only. Thank you very much for all your help and support, it is greatly appreciated.
Miss Clark is hoping to make up story bags and is looking for donations of…..
-Small bears looking for around 10.
-Hungry Caterpillar soft toy and story book.
– Mouse, Owl, Snake and Fox soft toy
-For the 3 bears story I’m looking for 3 bears in big, medium and small size. (No bigger than an A4 piece of paper for the large bear.
I would like to thank everyone for the donations received so far this is very much appreciated. I continue to thank you for your support as these story bags will be used as a home link project to support communication and language development.
Please have a look at our communication board as it has some information on rhyming such as top tips pictured above and our Nursery rhyme of the week which is Hickory, Dickory Dock. Please encourage your child to use their imagination to make up rhyming words as this aids your child’s prediction skills. Awareness of Rhyming assists your child’s knowledge of words, syllables, sounds and aids their ability to read and spell at a later stage. Please point out rhyming words within books and songs as this is of great benefit to your child.
We are focusing on rhyming words still so are carrying this Nursery Rhyme forward for another week. Please have a look on the communication board or the blog for more information regarding the importance of raising your child’s awareness of Rhyming words.
