Updates:

Owl class had a great time on the field, PJ laughed as we pushed him up and down the hill, Ruby and Daniel enjoyed exploring the outdoor instruments, and Kitty stood at the tuff tray to pat and splash in the water. It was great to have fun in the fresh air !

We practice our physical skills by rolling balls to #TinaTurner #ProudMary, reaching our arms to #riseup as part of our work looking at tennis player #SerenaWilliams, and we kick balls to our friends to #callmealioness just like #LaurenJames.

This term, Owl class are focussing on big and small in maths. We have great fun bouncing and rolling big and small balls; and exploring different sizes of lights and objects in the sensory room

Activity Ideas for Remote Learning

Sensology at home

Make some playdough, explore the ingredients, encourage mixing at different stages and then play with the playdough. Try different actions to different music or you can follow (adapt) some of the videos on youtube:

  • Get messy and explore shaving foam, try adding different tactile objects or toys to find in the foam. This can be done in cornflour gloop, custard, spaghetti, anything goes!!!
  • There is a booklet of different recipes for different media enclosed.
  • Practise tracking and reaching. Use some favourite toys and items. Can your child locate them either by reaching out and feeling them, listening and locating, tracking the movement left to right / up and down. This is great for gross motor, head control, cognition and also helps with communication skills.
  • Get physical and get moving. Use your favourite songs (different tempos and styles are best) get out on the floor and support your child in different movements in time to and as an interpretation of the music e.g. rolling, bouncing, tapping, arm movements, bending and straightening legs etc. Encourage your child to move independently where they can. Make your own mini disco.
  • Technology. Use your tablet, computer, smart TV, phone (whatever you have available) to access some different motivation songs, stories and games. Below is a link to some different websites you can try. (some may require you to register, but registration is free to access some of the resources)
  • You can access a free trial of Snap Core First which is the electronic communication tool. You can tailor the options for choice between 2 symbols (pictures can also be copied in)
