Wednesday 29.4



Good Morning everyone,
It's been so lovely hearing from lot's of you this week :) I'm glad to hear that you are all well and to see you have been working hard on the tasks. It's been a rainy couple of days so if you go out for a walk you might want to put your wellies on. (Then you can jump in all the puddles).



To lighten the dreary mood I have a joke to share with you...

What do you call a sleeping dinosaur?
A dino-snore 😂

Do you have a (appropriate) joke to share?

Creative
Cutting skills
It is a really important skill that children are able to hold scissors correctly.
This is something children in reception can find challenging - they only have little hands after all.
However now is a great time to practice and its a good way of developing those muscles in the hand!
Remind them to be safe with scissors.
Ask your child how we carry scissors safely - they have been taught this in school.


Draw straight and wavy lines across paper, thin cardboard and other recyclable materials.

Support them to hold scissors effectively.
Allow your child time to cut and stick different resources together - they could make something?

Other fun things they could practice cutting with scissors.
Cut cooked spaghetti, grass, roll out playdough and cut. Kitchen roll tube man, sun, flower,
spiral snake.
