This week we're looking at the story of the Frog Prince (aka The Princess & the Frog). In the version of the story we're going to read the princess throws the frog out of the window! We're going to talk about caring for animals, the environment and each other. We will also talk about keeping promises and safety around water. We will be using the hall and our outdoor area to play ball games and practise our throwing, catching and kicking skills.
We will look at the life cycle of a frog and make pictures of each stage using different painting skills. Some of us will mix paint to make green paint for the frog and some of us will use finger paints to make pictures of frogspawn. We will also do a dance based on the life cycle of the frog. We are going to use frogs and lily pads to practise our number and addition skills this week too.
Ways to help at home this week
Go outdoors. What can you hear? Listen carefully to the sounds around you and help your child to identify them. What about indoors? What can you hear in your house?
Play I Spy. You could play a different version and sound out the word for your child, e.g. I spy with my little eye the b-i-n.
What's coming up next week?
It's the last week of this half term next week! We will have our Celebration Assembly on Friday at 1.45pm. Parents and carers are welcome to attend. Please use the main entrance.
