Hi Everyone,
Our topic 'Minibeasts' and our focus on fine manipulative development continues this week and we have lots of fun activities planned.
The children really enjoyed our bug hunt obstacle course last week so we will be doing this again with a few new challenges added in. We will also be practicing our ball skills and aim, throwing balls at a spiders web made using a hoop and masking tape.
For our movement activity this week we will be using the parachute. We will be learning colours, reciting numbers in order, using gross motor movements to move the parachute in different ways, moving in time to music and following instructions.
We will be playing with playdough this week. Encouraging the children to use their fine manipulative skills by rolling, prodding, squeezing and using a range of different tools. We have insect cutters, measuring worms and insect modelling cards to bring in our topic too.
In the water tray we will be playing in Gelli baff with insects and practicing our scissor skills using the scissor scoops to catch them.
On the creative table we will continue to make a variety of different insects while exploring with colour, patterns and symmetry.
The children will continue to have access to our 'minibeast' tuff tray and interest table. Exploring natural materials, using tweezers to catch insects and promote fine motor skills, filling and emptying containers and expanding their knowledge too!
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
'The Ladies' 🦋
