Nursery Newsletter 28.11.16

Dear Parents and Carers,

This week we are focusing on the story 'Pete the Cat: My Four Groovy Buttons.'

These are the skills we will be focusing on this week:
Mathematics 
Counting down with Pete as he looses his buttons in the story. Showing the correct number of fingers to represent a number and reciting number names in order.

Physical
Showing balance and control when playing running and chasing games.

Literacy 
They will be joining in with Nursery Rhymes and learning actions to help them recall these and following on from last week listening carefully to the different sounds instruments make and beginning to play simple rhythms.
We will be learning to recall, describe and discriminate between different sounds in focus groups this week.

Communication and Language
Encouraging children to use simple sentences correctly.
Modelling the correct use of tense e.g. "I went to the park".
Encouraging children to hold a conversation and respond to comments.

Personal and Social Development
Ensuring children are able to co-operate with routines and some boundaries.
Modelling the correct behaviours in play, ensuring children use resources well and begin to share with other children.


Messages 
The children are encouraged to use the outside area in all weathers as long as they are suitably dressed. Most children now have a pair of wellies in school. It would also be a good idea to bring in waterproof coats/macs with the children. These can either go home with the children or stay in school on their pegs. 


The EYFS Nativity for Nursery and Reception will be on December the 12th. 

Remember all children need to apply for their place in Reception regardless of whether they have attended the Nursery. You need to apply online at: www.havering.gov.uk/eAdmissions.  If you need support to apply please see Miss Tynan in the Nursery and we will help. 


Kind regards,

The Nursery Team
