Home learning ideas for parents and Pre-school children

Nursery Rhymes

In Pre-school we enjoy listening to a variety of nursery rhymes, the children love watching these in class. You can use the Youtube kids app to make sure your children are not exposed to inappropriate advertisements. 

Click each link below to find suitable videos for your child :

Phonics 

In Pre-school the children are looking at environmental sounds and discovering the sounds we can make with our bodies using body percussion, all of these are aspects from phase 1 phonics.

For advice on doing phase 1 phonics at home with your children please click on the links below :
