Other Learning Tasks |
Please remember that children learn and develop their interests through play, so do encourage your child to play with their (non-screen related) toys and with everyday items. One of our main focuses in Reception is to develop speaking and listening, so we would really appreciate it if you could maintain continuity with this at home. Talk with your child, ask them open-ended questions, and listen to them. Please, please do not rely on screen time to occupy your child! With all the best for a healthy, safe and happy week.
