Literacy - Shark in the Park Mrs Subachus' favourite nursery book is ‘Shark in the Park’ she said she likes it because it is a rhyming book and because it is about sharks! If you haven't heard the story before or would like to listen to it again, click this link for the author Nick Sharratt to read it to you. Did you get the opportunity to talk to your family about your favourite book in nursery? Which book did you choose? Do you remember when we made telescopes in school? Perhaps you could make another one at home and use it to spot rainbows! What did Timothy Pope spot through his telescope? Can you think of something that rhymes with that word? Did Timothy Pope find any sharks in the story? Can you tell a grown up? A colour hunt for maths What is your favourite colour? Miss Symes's favourite colour is green. Can you see how many items you can find around your house that are your favourite colour? How many of these objects are food?

Good morning children ! Your challenge this week is to play 'I spy' with your family. Playing this game will help strengthen your vocabulary, memory , attention and listening skills. There are two activities to play. 1st Activity 1. Look at the picture and tell your grown up all the things that you can see! Try to name 10 objects.  2. Listen and point.
Your grown up is going to say the following 'I spy' sentences. Listen very carefully to the 'special words' (clues) in the sentences. " I spy with my little eye something that is ... red, round, big, heavy, soft" "I spy with my little eye something I can... play with, wear, sleep in, watch, read" " I spy with my little eye something that is a ... toy, furniture, wooden" 2nd Activity Play 'I spy' around your house. Try to use special words (clues) that describe an object, tells you what an object can do and what group the object belongs to. Remember to take turns and have fun! Mrs Martin Welcome to our weekly speech, language and communication challenge! Your challenge is to do the following mouth movement exercises everyday. These exercises will make the muscles around your mouth and face much stronger and help you to say your words clearly. You need a mirror so that you can watch yourself doing the exercises. Try to do each exercise 3 times. Try to hold that movement for 5 seconds.  Have fun!
Mrs Martin Good morning everyone!! Here is the link to our Good Morning song! It has been a very strange week working from home! I have been making sure my son does his work for school; he has also been helping Mr Subachus to paint the fence! How are you and your families? Please remember to keep in touch with us. You can tell us anything that you may have been doing whilst off. Have you been joining in with Joe Wicks? Have you managed to do any cooking? If so, send in some photographs to our email address: [email protected] Weekend task: Can you make a family Time Capsule? Each member of your family can put an item into a box. Inside the box you can get a grown up to help you to write your family members names. Also in the box you could write down your favourite television programme, film, song, food. Why did you choose those items? Why did you pick a certain song? Once your capsule (box) is complete, you can seal it and place it somewhere safe. Then in a number of years (maybe 10) you then take out the capsule and look inside! Look below for a special message of me and some more super work that has been sent in.
