This half term the children are concentrating on number recognition, numbers between 1-15. There are many ways, and activities that we incorperate number recognition as well as celebrate different fesitvals such as Burns night and Chinese New Year. The children will have the chance to use chop sticks eating their noodles and pawn crackers.
This half term we are learning about our 5 different senses. Each week will be a new sense with an acitivty that explores this, such as pancake day trying different toppings for their pancakes they have made themselves, smell -we made playdough using different scents As well as senses, in this half term we will also be celebrating different fesitivals such as Holi the festival of colour, St Patricks Day, Mothers Day and Easter.
Sharing celebrations and festivals with their friends gives the children self- confidence and self awareness. They support each other and build realtionships exchanging experiences they are familiar with. Different celebrations will challenge various emotions for children to be able to express and manage.
