Session 1 - Story time.

With your child, listen to Miss Schubert reading the story and asking some questions.

e.g. Teacher: What did the dog do?

Session 2 - Listening games.

In Nursery we have started playing listening games to prepare the children for phonics teaching in Reception.

Play the games alongside your child, sometimes guessing the wrong answers, encourage your child to correct you!
