Happy Tuesday Nursery!
We have been so impressed with your home learning and yesterday you made us extra proud. We can see how happy you are of your achievements in rhyming and when representing number, we even received some photos of celebration dances when the learning had been successful! Keep it up everyone you are doing an amazing job!
Todays learning activities are:

After you have told them, show them which number you have rolled by selecting the correct Ten Town card and then by holding up the correct amount of fingers.
Please share your child’s achievements via the Nursery email. It is [email protected] . We love to celebrate the achievements with you!
