Good Morning!

We can't wait to see you on MS Teams This Morning for our well-being calls.

ILD Support For Parents...

ILD Support For Parents

We have very much enjoyed looking at the videos and photos that you have been uploading to ILD. We understand that there have been some technical problems with the app. As a school, we have received communication from ILD stating that videos and photos are taking longer to process currently due to the whole of the UK also being in lockdown. They are currently experiencing problems due to the increased amount of data traffic. We are waiting for them to improve their systems, but in the meantime, please be patient with us as we respond to your observations. They are taking longer to arrive on our servers than normal, so it may take a day or two before they become visible to you on your app.

Did you know that you can access ILD via the portal on the internet at https://portal.interactivelearningdiary.co.uk/? When checking via the portal, your observations are often visible sooner.

If you are having technical difficulties using your app or loading observations, you can also contact ILD directly at support@interactivelearningdiary.co.uk

We hope this helps!

Wake Up Songs!

I love how you can make the best of snacktime by enjoying a book together!

Early Mathematical Development

Mathematics skills are rooted in the prime areas of physical development and communication and language. In order to be able to count, children must first be able to say number names in sequence. Many of our children can recite numbers in different languages...this is awesome! Some children are able to count accurately with 1:1 correspondence. This means they are able to touch one object, saying each number name in turn. They know to count each object once only and to stop when all the objects have been counted. Lining objects up will help with this.

Can you go on an animal hunt in your house?

Look through your toys to see how many animals you have.

Can you count how many teddy bears?

How many dinosaurs?

How many……?

You can decide how you would like to sort your animals. You might like to sort them by colour, just like the different coloured animals in the story. Or, you might like to sort them according to where they like to live? Some animals need to be in the sea, some animals like to live in the trees and some animals are happy on the ground.

We would love you to upload an ILD observation of your child counting and sorting their toy animals.

Mindfulness

This game develops mindfulness of body, surroundings and sounds, focus and calm.

Tell your child that you are going on a senses hunt. You are going to stop at 3 different places and each time you are going to use different senses to see what you can notice at each spot. You are going to use your sense of sight (eyes), sense of sound (ears) and sense of touch (hands).

Find out how below:

Go somewhere in your house or garden.

Stop and stand very still. Take 3 breaths. In through your nose and out through your mouth.

Then ask your child to listen.

What can you hear? Tell me three things that you can hear?

Go to another place and stop again. Take 3 breaths. Ask your child to look around.

What can you see? Tell me three things that you can see?

Go to another place and stop again. Take 3 breaths. Ask your child what they can feel or touch.

What can you feel? Tell me three things that you can feel.

Cookie Monster from Sesame Street demonstrates a similar game while waiting for his cookies to cook:

Thai translation below:

การตามล่าด้วยประสาทสัมผัสทั้ง 3

เกมส์นี้จะช่วยให้เด็กๆได้มีพัฒนาการด้านการรับรู้ทางร่างกาย สิ่งรอบตัว และมีสมาธิมากขึ้น

ให้เด็กๆใช้ประสาทสัมผัสการค้นหา โดยการไปอยู่ในสถานที่ที่แตกต่างกัน 3จุด ซึ่งในแต่ละจุดจะใช้

ประสาทสัมผัสทางการมองเห็น (ตา) ประสาทสัมผัสทางการได้ยิน (หู) ประสาทสัมผัสทางการทางการสัมผัส (มือ)

ใช้พื้นที่ภายในบ้านหรือสวนก็ได้ หยุดและนิ่งใช้การกำหนดลมหายใจเข้าทางจมูก หายใจออกผ่านทางปาก 3ช่วงลมหายใจ และให้เด็กตั้งใจฟัง

จากนั้นถามเด็กๆว่า “ได้ยินเสียงอะไรบ้าง บอกเสียงที่ได้ยินมา3อย่าง”

เปลี่ยนไปอีกจุด หยุดและนิ่งใช้การกำหนดลมหายใจเข้าทางจมูก หายใจออกผ่านทางปาก 3ช่วงลมหายใจ และให้เด็กๆมองไปรอบๆตัว

จากนั้นถามเด็กๆว่า “ได้เห็นอะไรบ้าง บอกสิ่งที่เห็นมา 3อย่าง”

เปลี่ยนไปอีกจุด หยุดและนิ่งใช้การกำหนดลมหายใจเข้าทางจมูก หายใจออกผ่านทางปาก 3ช่วงลมหายใจ และให้เด็กๆสัมผัสอะไรก็ได้

จากนั้นถามเด็กๆว่า “จากการสัมผัสรู้สึกอย่างไร บอกความรู้สึกนั้นมา 3อย่าง”

Early Phonics Development

What noises do your different animals make?

Sound discrimination is one of the early stages of phonics development and links to communication and language skills. Phonics is a method of teaching children to read by linking sounds and the symbols that represent them. In nursery, we know that by teaching our children to hear the difference in everyday sounds now, they will be developing the ability to hear the difference between letter sounds later.

Have a go at this game.
