We hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year. \u00a0It\u2019s great to see the children back and hear all their Christmas stories. \u00a0They all enjoyed the school panto and their Christmas party.<\/p>\n
After a very busy term 1 we are looking forward to a productive and enjoyable term 2 (January to Easter). \u00a0We hope the children settle well back into their afternoon nursery placements and enjoy a full nursery curriculum. We \u00a0are looking forward to visiting them at their nursery to see how they are each getting on and to share\u00a0strategies and learning targets.<\/p>\n
This term we will have a weekly focus on a sound, number song and nursery rhyme. \u00a0We will be teaching skills and knowledge and understanding through our topics of ‘Commotion in the Ocean’ and ‘Farmyard Hullaballoo’. \u00a0We will be investigating life under the sea as well as finding out more about work on a farm. This term we will also be working of finding out about the ‘Chinese New Year’. \u00a0We will be performing a dragon dance in the gym and tasting some Chinese food. We will be finding out more about Robert Burns and his work, trying some Scottish food and hopefully trying out some dancing too!\u00a0We will also be working on the children’s individual targets as stated in their Individual Education Programmes (IEP) through topics and class activities.<\/p>\n
