SIGHTS SOUNDS SMELLS & TASTES !


At Broadway Playschool,  the 2-3year olds have been  learning "who's got the glasses on" game- doing really well.

We have witnessed lots of role play,  copying adults roles - for example -a member of staff was doing observations – suddenly there was a whole row of children with pads and pens, mark-making/writing, copying her making observations !!

There have been some lovely fine motor skills developing when filling up bottles and ice cube trays with dried pasta,

And excellent singing and dancing at circle time!


Towerview Playschool

On Wednesday at Forest School all the children had a fabulous time making hedgehogs out of clay, they were all keen to have a go and the hedgehogs are drying out on a plank ready to go home.

This week our ‘Tap Tap’ Art seemed to be very popular – creating some excellent pictures from wood pieces and nails on cork mats and there has been some excellent mark making outside with big chalks.

At circle time one day – we go into little groups and did our syllable clapping and ‘sounds like’ games – the children are getting good at hearing letter sounds. We also practiced matching up instruments from behind a screen which takes a lot of listening skills.

Thursday – we all made pizzas – from scratch – it took until 1pm but the children worked hard making the dough – letting it prove then rolling and putting their choice of toppings on- yum yum!

Before forest school on Friday – because the children had seen a flapjack recipe in our cookbook – we quickly made some flapjack before we set off- we went to the bottom site – which we haven’t been in since before Xmas  - where we found lots of daffodils and twigs and branches that had fallen from the trees over the winter.
