What's Happening at Pre-School w/c 25.09.23

 Hi Everyone,

This is our last week of our 'Colours of a rainbow' topic before we move onto our new topic 'All About Me' 

We ask for all parents to provide a family photo that your happy for us to keep, for w/c Monday 2^nd October. The children will use their photo to take part in show and tell and then we will be creating a pre-school family tree.  

This week's focus will be all about numbers. We will be practicing our reciting, counting objects 1-1 and working on our number recognition too. 

We will be using the parachute during our movement time, playing with numbered balloons with bats in the physical area and singing some of our favourite number rhymes. 

Our home corner will be turned into Springfield's Corner Shop. Introducing money by role playing with the tills, price labels and play money. 

We will be exploring mixing colours again this week, using pipettes and different coloured water. We will be making cellophane rainbows and painting by number too. 

Please remember to log into Tapestry, this gives you the opportunity to share all the lovely activities and photos with your children at home. Including what their next steps are. 

Any questions please ask or use Tapestry. 😀

Many Thanks

What's Happening at Pre-School w/c 18.09.23

 Hi Everyone,

This week our topic 'Colours of the Rainbow' continues and we will be taking part in lots of colour themed activities throughout the week. Our focus of the week is Shapes. We will be playing with shapes, making arrangements with shapes, seeing what shapes we can find in the environment, and looking at what shapes we can recognise too. 

We will be fishing for shapes in the water tray and we will be getting messy in the shaving foam. What shapes can we trace/draw? We will be making pictures out of shapes on the creative table, and we will be painting with our shaped splatters onto large paper on the floor. 

During our movement time we will be experimenting moving in different ways. Can we run, hop, jump, crawl to the different shapes/colours on the floor.

What's Happenig at Pre-School W/C 11.09.23

 Hi Everyone,

This week at pre-school our topic 'colours of the rainbow' begins. 🌈

Our focus will be Colours. Can the children match colours? What colours do the children recognise? What happens when we mix colours together? Can the children use colours for a purpose? e.g., using a green pen when drawing grass.

We will be having lots of fun in the creative area. We will be making a giant rainbow for our display board, using different media and materials. We will be using a variety of different tools to mix paint together, exploring what happens to the colours. What new colours can we make?

During our movement time we will be dancing with our colourful ribbons to some of our favourite songs. 

All our new starters that started pre-school last week all did amazing and settled in really well. We look forward to welcoming some more of our new children this week.
