Good Afternoon Parents, Carers and Children

Under the present circumstances we would like to keep in touch with you using this forum. We would like to start by informing you of the learning that has taken place recently. You might like to extend your child’s learning with this information.

Health and well being

The children have been busy learning how to keep their bodies healthy through food, personal hygiene and physical exercise. One of the biggest learning points has been implementing our new ‘handwashing song’. Ask your child to sing it to you!

Wash, wash, wash your hands, wash the germs away,

If you don’t you might get ill and that will spoil your day.

Tune: Row, row , row your boat

(Remember Mrs Armstrong says “Safe Sally sings it twice for it to be effective”).

Numeracy

There has been an interest in measurement that we are following in a variety of ways.

• the children have been exploring their height to see how tall they are
• the children have been using mathematical language such as small, tall, big, long and short

Try using this mathematical language throughout the day as well as looking for objects that vary in size.

More learning to follow.

Stay safe, your Uphall ELC Team
