our stories and poems will all have an Easter theme, especially a poem called easter hats, which  uses every day language to talk about size and position.
we will sing 5 hot cross buns to think about numbers and groups of numbers.



have you seen all the lovely easter stories in Waterstones and the library? there are some lovely new titles to enjoy.

Easter

Dear Parents,
Over the next two weeks we will be learning and exploring within the theme of Easter.
we will be using the topic to learn about size and number.
We will be enjoying lots of crafts, colours, patterns and shapes, poems and stories. All of these things are based on the Easter display we saw at the garden centre and the objects the children liked best.
We will be talking about them and the children will be thinking about what resources we need.

Dont forget to check the blog midweek so we can let you know what we have been doing!

Our trip to the garden centre

Dear Parents,
We have had a lovely time this week at the garden centre. We have brought seed potatoes, vegetable and flower seeds for the garden and bird seed. We looked at the Easter display and took lots of photographs so we can decide what decorations we want to make for Easter.

Don't forget to wear something red for comic relief if you are coming to Pre school Friday.

If you have a shared book at home don't forget to pass it on so everyone can enjoy it,thank you to all those who write a comment, we include them all in the children's learning journeys.
