| Our Morning The first part of the session is fairly structured, while the second part is given over to free play and craft. We hope this structure of session will help your child to develop in many different ways. We always have a large selection of books out, and some sort of tactile play each session, e.g. playdough. Once the children are familiar with our environment and our routine, we allow them to choose their own activities during free-play. They also have regular free choice from the craft trolley. We regularly use the computer with the children during the second half of the session. We have a library for the children. They may choose a book each session and take it home to read.
| This is an outline of our morning. Some days may vary slightly, e.g. when we are doing cooking. 9.15 Arrive, children put their photos & names on the board to register. One child is the Helper for the session. 9.15-10.10 Activities, e.g. painting, puzzles, craft, board games, sorting, playdough, mathematical activities, free play, sand, water. 10.10-10.25 Circle time, Interest Tray (we ask the children to bring in something related to the theme each session. They then have the opportunity to talk about what they have brought in, with the rest of the group). 10.25-10.45 Physical activity, e.g. music and movement, hopscotch, parachute, balancing, ring games. 10.45-10.55 Story. Followed by a trip to the toilet and washing of hands. 10.55 -11.05 Milk and water are offered with fruit at mid-morning and mid-afternoon sat in small groups at the tables. We like, where possible, for each child to bring in a piece of fruit or vegetable sticks, to share. The children take it in turns to give out the drinks and fruit. 11.05-11.35 Free play and children's choice, e.g. computer, fantasy corner, choice of tabletop activities from trolley, self-selection from craft trolley. 11.35-11.45 Singing 11.45-12.45 Lunch Club |
