To foster Kindness, and Encouragement ensuring all Young learners achievements are Celebrated
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

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.
