Well we have started getting ready for Christmas in the Pine Room.
During a game of Christmas Bingo were all successful learners, matching up the symbols on our board, practising our Makaton symbols for all the different Christmas things, such as Christmas Tree, Angel, Elf, Snowman and Bell. Below are a couple of links if you want to practise at home.
Singing Hands Christmas Alphabet
Our Christmas Tree is made out of felt, so we can pull off the shapes and rearrange them – we can decorate the tree everyday if we want!!! It gives us another great opportunity to talk about the shapes and practise our Makaton signs.
Oh no Buddy the Elf is back!!!
He is ready for some MOVE today!!!
For Literacy we made ‘glowing’ Christmas Lights in our names, finding the letters, sounding them out and making lovely name plates.
Great work!!
Now lets get decorating!! Spreading the icing, sprinkling different coloured sprinkles, and making shapes.
This was great fun!!
Now for some Numeracy – lets make some reindeers.
Triangles, diamonds…
…squares?
Excellent Work!!!
During Sensory Play we mixed, rolled the plastic balls, exercised our hands and made soap shapes.
In Art we are making Christmas babbles, sticking different textures on to paper plate – we will finish them off next week.
We open an advent parcel every day and read a different Christmas Book below are a few of our favourites.
