Dear Parent/Carer,
We had a great start to the Summer Term, children who started last week have quickly settled in and the children are enjoying making new friends. The children enjoyed finding out about bumble bees last week, they were able to touch and explore a real honey comb slab so could see how hard bees worked!
A list of Key Dates for this Half Term:
Wednesday 22nd May - Stay and Play session - Parents are invited to stay with their children for a session based around 'Knowledge of the World'.
Thursday 23rd May - Polling Day (School closed)
Friday 24th May - Break up for Half term. School re-opens on Tuesday 4th June.
Our story this week is: What the ladybird heard by Julia Donaldson
Thank you for any recycling donations made last week. Could parents please continue to bring in clean recycling so we can use them in our junk modelling designs. Egg boxes, cardboard, plastic bottles etc are all very useful.

Maths
The children are encouraged to carefully move pom poms with tweezers into the bee hives. This gives lots of opportunities for counting, sorting and ordering. They will also be encouraged to count sounds and hear how many they have heard e.g. three conkers dropped into a box. The children need to know when to stop counting and that the last number the counted is how many there are.
Creative
We will be junk modelling this week and learning how to join materials.
Communication and Language
We are listening to rhyming stories and playing lots of rhyming games. See if your child can think of any words rhyming with cat or frog after this week!
Knowledge of the World
This week we are cooking 'Cheese and tomatoe bites'. The children have to cut wraps using cutters, spoon in passata and add grated cheese. Although an adult will be present to model any new skills and talk about what is happening the children will be encouraged to use the picture recipe and decide what they should do as a team.
