Home learning- Friday 12th June

🌟 Hi Everyone, 🌟

This week the children have been learning all about their five senses 👀👂👃👅✋

The children have been exploring different smells, textures and sounds, as well as talking about the things they like to taste and see. It has been lovely watching them use their senses to investigate the world around them! 😊

Why not spend a few minutes in your garden this weekend with your eyes closed? 👀❌ Ask an adult to write down all the things you can hear. 👂🎶

🚗 Can you hear traffic?
🐦 Can you hear birds singing?
🌳 Is your garden nice and quiet?
🐕 Can you hear dogs barking?

Afterwards, why not draw a picture of some of the things you heard? 🎨🖍️

📸 Don’t forget to upload your photos to Tapestry so we can see what you’ve been up to, and bring your picture in for Show and Tell next week.

We can’t wait to see them! 😊

Have a lovely weekend everyone! ☀️

Today at Little Me Preschool Silver End, the children had a very special visitor! 🐾

This is Buddy, a wonderful therapy dog who came in to meet the children. The children loved spending time with him, learning how to approach dogs safely and confidently, and enjoying the calming and comforting presence he brought to the setting.

Buddy was a huge hit, and we look forward to welcoming him back again soon! 🐶❤️

Today at Little Me Preschool Silver End, the children enjoyed using real food in our role play area! 🥕🥔🥦

Real life experiences help children make sense of the world around them, encouraging communication, imagination and learning through play. 😊
