We had a great final week of half term; we loved reading The Magic Paintbrush by Julia Donaldson and we watched some short video clips to find out how people prepare for the Lunar New Year festival and celebrate with their families.
As an early years unit we made a Chinese Dragon and went on our own dragon parade around school, we used musical instruments to help us celebrate.
On Tuesday 10th February it was Safer Internet Day in school. We talked about how important it is to keep safe online. We spoke about always only using a tablet or iPad when a grown up is with you.
Here is a useful website for advice and tips for keeping your child safe on line.
Keeping your under 5 safe online
Learning after half term:
We’ll be reading The Train Ride and beginning our ‘Let’s Go’ theme. If you have a copy of the book at home, please read it together to help familiarise your child with the story. We’ll be going on our first school trip on Wednesday so we have a very exciting first week back.
