Being thankful


Gerald Giraffe is thankful he can hula hoop ...

What are you thankful for?

morning register

Do the morning register - look at what day it is and and practise writing your name.

Do you remember the writing phrase for today's sound? Can you practise writing it whilst saying the writing phrase?

Todays writing phrase is; Round the apple, down the leaf.

You can either ask mum or dad to print a copy for you to write on, or you can make your own register to use at home.

  • selection of straws - one straw per paint colour you are using / one straw per child

  • blank paper

What to do:

  • Help your child to draw / trace some large shapes onto the blank paper

  • Mix the paint and bubble solution together.

  • Place a piece of paper on the table.

  • Dip the bubble straw into the bubble paint and then blow out bubbles so they land on the paper


Other ideas:

  • Add more shapes / paint colours

  • Talk about colour mixes

some extra fun ;-)

Shapes - matching and counting

Draw a selection of 2D shapes on some pieces of paper. With tape / wool / twine make a grid on the floor and place the shape images on the top of the grid.

Can you find objects in your house that match the shape? Can you count how many shapes there are in each section. How many triangles did you find? What colour are your shapes?

great learning today giraffes!

Have a super afternoon and I will see you again tomorrow :-)
