Maths:

We have been playing with farm animals and using our math's skills by counting them and categorising them.

Can you explore this at home? If not, play with any types of toys you have at home like cars, animals, bricks and encourage counting number names, putting them in catergorsing eg in colours or sizes. Using a range of mathematical language like big, little, small, tiny, huge etc

Communcation and language skills:

Supporting language, children get some much development through singing nursery rhymes & reading stories together. 

Looking at books, point out the different illustrations, naming the pictures and asking the children "what can you see?" getting them to join in with pointing and naming too. we have been looking at different emotions in illustrations and getting the children to copy them like happy, sad, angry. 

Children interest:
