Circle Time – We start our circle time singing “hello – super simple songs” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVlcKp3bWH8

This is also the time we started to learn some Spanish. Leave you here some Spanish translations.

Good morning – “Buenos Dias”

Hello – “Hola”

How are you? – “como estas?”

We then talk about how we are feeling today (happy, sad, tired, and excited). We find how does the weather look like and what day it is – You can do your calendar book.

And we finish our circle time sharing the last day news. Again you can always share with us if you want. J

Art- Donut Shop -Setup a Donut Shop Role Play Area in your house to pretend you are selling donuts today!

Paint the donuts cut from recycled cardboard. Use glitter, piece of card, cut magazines, seeds, stickers… Use your imagination to make different “flavours” and “topics”. Make them nice and yammy! “Sell” them to your family in the house.

 

Remember to take part at tidying up time, you know the song.

Outdoor learning – Pam thought it would be a good idea to start a “Going on a bear hunt” walk.  Check Gina’s post about the bear hunt.  How many bears will you see when you go for a walk today?  Do you know … I saw a bear at my window, have a look .

HWB – You know how important it is to wash your hands. Let’s find out, how germs spread, and why it is important to wash hands with soap?

For this activity, you will need the following:

• Glitter
• Access to a sink
• Soap and water
• Optional: lotion
• Optional: sheet of white paper

Ask your child to use water or lotion to get their hands damp. Note that the hands should be damp but not soaking wet.

Then sprinkle a healthy amount of glitter onto your child’s palms and have your child rub their palms together. Explain that the glitter represents germs, and your child’s hands are now covered in germs.

Ask your son to give a handshake to a person next to him/her.

(If you don’t have a second person to pass the “germs” on to you, your child can also just place their palms onto a white sheet of paper and observe how many “germs” are left behind when they remove their hands.)

Now look at the other person hands and see how they are now covered in “germs” as well.

Then ask your kid to go into the bathroom and wash their hands with water only (no soap).

Despite rinsing well, your kid still have some “germs” on his hands. He/she will learn that washing with water alone doesn’t get hands very clean.

Then ask to wash their hands again, but this time to use soap.

Can you see how easily germs can spread from person to person, and why washing our hands with soap is so important? Washing with water alone just doesn’t do the job! Only by washing with soap was it easy to get all the “germs” off their hands.

 

 

Good afternoon everyone.

Are you ready for our Outdoor learning today?

If you choose to build an indoor cave, you can use blankets, chairs and pegs (to stop the blankets coming off the chairs).

Take your teddy with you and have fun!

I would like to see your photos about your adventure today.

 

 

Hi everyone in Group 7, here is a list of tasks and jobs for around the home that everyone can help doing.  They don’t take long and this could really help adults make things a lot easier to manage whist we are all isolating.
