Communication Board – Top Tip update
The children here at the ECC have been eagerly participating in bubble play within our outdoor environment. This is a fun physical activity that you can do at home with your child to stimulate interactions. Please click on the link above for more information!
Our Nursery Rhyme of the week is still Incy Wincy Spider this is to allow staff time to track the children’s knowledge of the rhyme which will be collated by Miss Clark and the data will be shared with you here on the blog over the next few weeks.
Is your child not talking yet?
Here is a helpful page on Facebook where the Speech and Language Therapists put up helpful tips on prompting your child’s communication skills.

★ Star of the Week ECC ★
Well done to this weeks Star of the Week winners for being super sitters at home time! 😀
Our Nursery Rhyme of the week is…..
One, two, three, four, five Makaton
Please try this rhyme out at home with your child pointing out the rhyming words this is very important in raising your child’s phonological awareness. Miss Clark is collecting data on the children’s knowledge and awareness of each rhyme before it becomes our focus and again after. I will share these results in pie chart form in the next few weeks. I recently attached our first pie chart on Hickory, Dickory Dock which showed an increase of knowledge and awareness when the rhyme was focused on at home and within the ECC in a partnership. Please try and incorporate this into your every day routine Nursery Rhymes are portable: Here are some examples of when they could be sang…..
*While in the car on the way to the ECC each day
*When out walking in the outdoor environment
*When your child is having a bath or shower
*Before or after story time at home.
*While making the dinner or tidying up.
*While visiting some relatives.
