Hedgehogs & Squirrels – May 2015
Welcome to Will who has started with the Hedgehogs this month! We are all looking forward to getting to know you!
Happy 1st Birthday to Owain and Happy Birthday to Frieda and Sam who turned 2 this month!
We would like to say a big thank you to all the parents who came in to read us stories in their home language. The children sat really well and seemed to enjoy hearing all the different languages!
This month we have been doing lots of mark-making, we especially liked using paint brushes an water to make marks on the chalk board and outside in the garden! We will continue to provide lots of mark-making opportunities both indoors and out!
We have also spent lots of time exploring noises this month; we have had lots of fun using the utensils to bang the metal pots and bowls as well as exploring the shakers and musical instruments! We plan to make up a noise treasure basket with lots of exciting noisy objects for the children to explore!
We have been becoming more independent this month! Some of our Hedgehogs are now up on their feet and doing really well with their walking while the older Hedgehogs and Squirrels have been doing great at choosing what they would like for snack and helping themselves as well as helping to tidy!
