Let's Learn at Home

Good morning! This weeks ‘Let’s Learn from Home’ is all about play dough!!

I LOVE messy play!!

Have fun!

Story time with Barbara

This weeks story is called ‘You can swim Jim’.

It’s all about a little boy called Jim who was afraid to go in to the swimming pool. I love to go swimming do you?

I hope you enjoy it!

Let's Learn at Home - Endless possibilities

The term ‘endless possibilities’ evolved from the Effective Provision of Preschool Education (EPPE) research and involves two or more individuals working together to solve a problem, clarify a concept or evaluate activities. It requires all participants to contribute to the thinking, which should be extended.

Sustained shared thinking is best described as those times when an adult is totally absorbed with a child, in conversation or in an activity with a genuine interest on both parts to find out more. Sustained shared thinking can happen anytime, anywhere and only requires time and interest on the part of the participants.

Enjoy your learning together!

Hello children and welcome to story time. This weeks story is one of our favourites, ‘Billy’s Bucket’. I hope you enjoy it.

A big thank you to everyone who has sent in photos for this weeks learning at home gallery. Keep them coming!

Finally, could I say thank you to all our families who have contacted me to say they fully understand our decision to remain closed until September. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to catching up in the Autumn.

The past couple of weeks have been particularly difficult in nursery. Forward planning following the half term break has created many issues for consideration. If you click on the button you will find a letter to you all explaining our decision.
