Nursery Learning Challenge Summer 2
Each half term we will be setting our pupils a challenge related to their learning, this is in line with the rest of the school. 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 however the table below details some ideas for the learning challenge.
Person: A Pirate/Princes of own choice
Painting: Janet Ahlberg (illustrator)
Poem/Song to learn: Row, row, row the boat.
