Nursery Continuing Student Learning Friday 27th August

Our Wonderful Learning

What a fantastic week of learning we have seen in Nursery! Your teachers and TAs have loved seeing the learning and experiences you have been sharing during your SGL calls.

Learning Advice for Parents

Role Play supports so many different areas of learning.

  • Using imagination and beginning to create story lines
  • Development of language and communication
  • Problem solving skills
  • Simple maths concepts

Learning Focus

Create a Role Play Cafe

Can you set up a cafe to make food for your family? We wonder what food you will serve; perhaps it will be noodles, maybe pizza, sushi or tea and cake?

Guidance

We are sure you have some toys at home that you can use. Some of the things you will need are; something to eat and drink from, cutlery and food. 

Ask your child what they think they will need.

Remember you can always pretend and use your imagination.

Some of the things your child may like to do in their cafe;

  • Take food orders
  • Make menus
  • Make the food
  • Eat the food

You can model language for your child;

  • What would you like to eat?
  • What would you like to drink?

We wonder what your child’s favourite food is?

Ms Jane’s favourite food is Pavlova and Ms Carol’s is noodles.

Promoting Independence

Can you help to prepare your own lunch?

Independence is so important in normal everyday routines. Chopping and peeling helps to develop fine motor skills. When your child helps to prepare their own food they may be more inclined to eat it.

Learning to Chop

Active Learning

The Penguin Dance

Action songs develop language as children learn the words, they also support the development of your child’s gross motor skills such as balance, strength and coordination.

Story Time

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

We Love to See Your Learning!

We really love to see videos and photos of what you have been doing at home. The best way to share this with us is via the Seesaw App. You should have received communication about how to download and login to the app. If you have not received this, please email the ISIT helpdesk- helpdesk@patana.ac.th

Resource Packs

If you have picked up your child's resource pack, they may already be very excited to explore what's inside.  Whilst there may be times that we encourage the use of certain resources, we would love for your child to have access to these, whenever they wish.  Below are some ideas about how you can enhance this learning.

Home-School Communication

We hope that you enjoy engaging with our Nursery Blog.

If you have any concerns or queries about your child’s learning, please do not hesitate to contact your child's class teacher via email. They can then arrange a mutually convenient time to meet via MS Teams. Our class teachers always welcome the opportunity to discuss your child’s needs and progress.
