Summer 1 Week 2

This week, the children engaged in a series of themed activities centred around “Jasper’s Beanstalk.” Key highlights included:

Fine Motor & Sensory Development: The children utilized a sensory tray to refine their fine motor skills, specifically using tweezers to sort and count beans.

Literacy & Roleplay: Creative expression was encouraged through camping roleplay and pencil control exercises inspired by the core text.

Understanding the World: Practical understanding of life cycles was developed through a bean-planting workshop

Mathematical Language: The children practiced comparative measurement by analysing the sizes of various beanstalks, accurately applying vocabulary such as “short,” “tall,” and “tallest.”
