We have been playing ‘don’t sink the boat’ outdoors in the puddle today and watched the wind make ripples moving the boat to the side.
Floating and Sinking
Developing Early Literacy skills
We have been listening to our 3 Read story ‘The Bear Under The Stairs’ and after the story we wanted to draw pictures of William and the Bear.
Cosmic Yoga
We have been relaxing today taking part in Cosmic Yoga-Safari Adventure. We were listening to the story and copying the animal yoga poses.
Emotion work
We have been reading the story “Giraffes can’t dance” and talking and learning about our feelings. We talked about how Gerald was feeling sad when the animals laughed at him then how he was happy when he could dance. We made happy and sad faces. 
Emotion Works
We have been using visuals and talking about and singing ‘The Sandy Boys/Girls’ song . We have been exploring and discussing emotion words, body sensations, emotion triggers, behaviour and emotion regulations during the song.
Sinking and floating
We have been exploring natural materials and sharing our ideas about what would sink or float.

St Andrew’s Day
We had a great day celebrating St Andrew’s Day. We made our own sunshine tartan, had a wellie throwing contest, had shortbread and loved our Scottish dancing.
We have been enjoying, exploring and investigating the pumpkins 🎃. We also had great fun at our hallowe’en party all dressed up and dancing with the glow sticks in the sensory room.
