Please read this story with your child and discuss how they think the turnip got so big as well as who they think is the most important character in the story. Answers on the blog please…

Next week the children will have lots of different opportunities to retell the story with props such as puppets, accessories and masks. The story will also help us to explore ordinal numbers, as well as being generous and thoughtful towards our friends by taking it in turns to go first, second, third etc. We will also be developing our fine motor and creative thinking skills by constructing and decorating a seed packet.

Your child will now have their Summer 1 targets. Please continue to help your child achieve them. It has been so lovely to see the children grow in confidence in their learning!

A reminder: We are now in the Summer term, please be aware that the children have free flow access to the outdoors. When the weather is sunny please apply suncream to your child before they come into school and send in a clearly named sun hat.
