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
