Last week we were out and about practicing our Road Safety Skills. We are learning lots of new vocabulary related to our community as well as developing our road sense.
Have a look at our learning.
We had a great week last week @KnightsridgeEYC out and about developing our vocabulary and practicing our #RoadSafetyWeek2020 skills. Looking forward to continuing our learning this week. 🚦🛑🚧⛔️ #developingearlylanguageskills #beingasafesally pic.twitter.com/hZwF6OvkQj

Our Children in Need Spotty Day was a great success with us having lots of fun identifying, discussing and creating spotty patterns.
Thank you all for your donations.
You don’t need to just read a book or story to discuss characters, place, time and event.
As part of developing our Oral Narrative Story Telling Skills we spent a lovely session using Nursery Rhymes to discuss Who? Where? When? and What Happened?
Try it at home!
Children in Need
Join us on Thursday 12th November and Dress to Impress in Spotty Clothing to celebrate and donate for Children in Need.
As we continue our learning through stories we focused on Christopher Pumpkin by Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet to celebrate our Halloween learning.
The children have displayed their learning using SWAY. Please have a look
A fabulous week learning all about fire safety.
Have a look at our learning.

We have started reading our WordBoost stories again. Our Wordboost stories are a programme of books that are aimed at developing language and vocabulary in young children.
Our first story is “The Selfish Crocodile”
The Boost Words we are learning
Each week each pre-school aged child will receive a sticker with a QR code to scan and listen to the story on our Youtube Channel.
This week we celebrated Math Week Scotland by taking part in our Maths in Action Activity Trail.
Have a”sneek peek” at some of the learning we took part in. Our SWAY with all our learning activities will be published at the end of Maths Week Scotland.
What a fabulous start to #MathsWeekScot as we launch our Maths in Action Activity Trail @KnightsridgeEYC. First order of the day was to discuss signs of Autumn 🍂 and estimate how many leaves had fallen from the tree. We then used our counting skills to check. @mathsweekscot pic.twitter.com/Wzizg2iuIX

Day 4 of #MathsWeekScot and our Maths in Action Activity Trail @KnightsridgeEYC took us to the Number Stop 🔢 where we recognised and ordered the number stones before matching the numeral to our counted leaf collections. 🍂 @mathsweekscot #developingearlynumeracyskills pic.twitter.com/e1I4r6CoH8

Today we were delighted to receive a rhyme booklet with some of our favourite rhymes from Scottish Book Trust.
We especially like Five Fat Peas and are practicing the actions to teach to our adults at home.
Have you tried it for yourself yet?
