Term: Autumn 2

We were very lucky to have the colour story telling workshop in last week. The children really enjoyed it and there are lots of photos on the Early Years page.
We will continue with our colour topic and our book of the week is ‘Brown Bear’. We will sing ‘Round and round the garden’ and ‘10 Fat sausages’. Our colour of the week is yellow.

Learning Challenge
Each half term we will be setting our pupils a challenge related to their learning. We believe that it is important for us to provide guidance for parents on how their children's learning can be extended at home.
The learning challenge will include either a nursery rhyme, illustration or a piece of music. Please talk to your child about the challenge and help them to engage in their learning. The children can choose how they present their learning challenge outcomes to their teacher or class.
Poem/Song to learn: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

Thank you to all of the parents who have returned their child’s dietary questionnaire. This will help us accommodate their needs and likes.
You may have noticed our display above the coat hooks. 'I can put my coat on'. We are trying to encourage the children's independence skills, as we notice that they can put their own coats on we will put their photo on the board. Once this has been achieved by all of the children we will change the objective.
We regularly update our EYFS blog. Please like our Broadford Primary Facebook page every time you see an EYFS blog. Feel free to make a comment on the children’s experiences.
