This week, we will introduce the question word,'when?' We will also learn the sign for 'peace'.

Peace Week
Guidance- English
It has been so wonderful seeing how you have been finding peace by looking after others and your environment! How has it made you feel? What words can you use to describe those feelings?
When I share food with others, I feel peace.
One of our favourite ways to feel safe, connected and happy at home is to prepare and share food together. We all have special meals that remind us of the people we love and our favourite times together. Today, you might like to head to the kitchen to prepare a snack or a meal with your family. Sit together to talk, laugh and eat! Family mealtimes are incredibly important! When you remember the times you shared food with your loved ones, the memories will always bring you a sense of joy and peace.
In your Resource Pack, you will have noticed a large art book. This is your child's 'Me and My World Book'.
Guidance- English
Research into communication, language and emotional development tells us that young children need opportunities to talk about and share their interests and family life with others. Once back in school, this book will help to create a sense of belonging and will encourage children to talk to their friends and teachers.
This book will come home from school many times throughout the year to be updated.
What we would like you to do now:
As this is a prompt for talk, we would like you to help your child to include some of the following:
Photographs of family members and other special people
Particular interests and hobbies
Holiday photographs
Special events (cultural or family celebrations)
Pets
Favourite foods
Favourite music, TV shows, toys, characters etc..
You do not need to print everything. Children can draw their favourite things or cut out snippets from magazines or leaflets. Your child can decorate the front cover of their book anyway they wish!
We suggest, that at this time, you don’t use more than 4 or 5 pages. This will ensure there is plenty of space for your child to add and reflect upon their experiences and interests throughout the rest of the school year.
Enjoy starting to create this special book together!
To see how powerful the 'Me and My World Book' can be in supporting and prompting communication, watch the way these students engage over some family photos:
