For your information, as promised, we have created a simple summary of some of the things we do in nursery to help develop literacy skills. You will soon find a copy in your child’s pigeon hole but here is a quick preview.
Just to let you know……
In Deans Nursery to develop our children’s language skills we have
- a book corner
- a daily story time
- a daily opportunity to ‘write’ name as they register in
- regular opportunities to talk about letters in names (especially the first letter).
- opportunities to show how to make letter sounds correctly focusing on the sound it makes long, short, quiet or loud
- regular opportunities to listen for syllables and rhymes
- a writing table with a huge selection of writing materials
