What's Happening at Pre-School w/c 13.05.24

 Hi Everyone,

We begin our new topic this week all about different kinds of transport. Our focus will be on the children's Personal, Social and Emotional development. 

We will be playing with all kinds of vehicles in all areas of our playroom, indoors and out. We will have construction vehicles with gravel, drainpipes, wooden blocks and hard hats. We will be playing with the brio train track and we will be using the mega blocks to build our own tunnels. 

In the creative area we will be playing with boats in water with different float and sink objects. We will have shaving foam in the messy play tray with numbered planes to find. We will be making different patterns and tracks on the creative table and making different vehicles out of 2D shapes. 

We will be promoting the children's PSE development with lots of activities that encourage turn taking, sharing and waiting their turn. We will be having discussions about different emotions and we will use our emotion cards to help the children draw their self-portraits.

Outdoors we will be using drainpipes and loose parts to see if we can make ramps for our cars, using chalked numbers to see how far we can make them go! We will have our emergency houses, vehicles and dressing up outside for the children to use in their role-play, as well as resources to explore space travel...which planet will we discover in our space rocket. 

It's 'bring your parent' to school morning on Thursday for all those children that attend a Thursday morning session, 9.15am- 10.15am. A chance for your children to show you what they get up to at pre-school and a chance for you to have a chat with your child's keyworker too. We look forward to seeing you there. 

Please remember to log onto Tapestry, this gives you the opportunity to share all the lovely photos and activities that your child has done at Pre-School, with them at home. Including what their next steps are.

Any questions please ask or use Tapestry.

Thanks
