Summer 1
Week 2 - 22nd April
I can't believe it is only the end of the second week for the children in Nicola's class. We have continued practising our routine and transitions around school; the children are doing AMAZINGLY well! The children are doing really well at gathering for group time, sensory story, sensology and bucket time, as well a participating in adult-led activities on a 1:1 basis.
This week we have been using the story "Spring Sings" as inspiration for our learning. We have looked at all of the different animals from our story, painted pictures of the characters, tried honey (like the bees make in the story), dug in the sand to find different animals, and matched pairs of animals and their babies.
The children have also enjoyed their first 'Rebound' session (which is a therapeutic exercise on a trampoline) with our teaching assistant, Josh.
It has been a fantastic week of playing and learning. Well done Nicola's Class 
Our first week at Kingsbury
Our first week at Kingsbury
What a fantastic first week.
Nicola’s class welcomed 5 new children to Kingsbury Primary School this week. We have focused on settling in and following the routines of the classroom, such as finding the classroom in the morning, hanging up our coats, joining the group for songs and activities and sitting together for snacks and meals. The children have been INCREDIBLE (you would not believe it has only been a week).
We have had lots of fun playing with sand, water, painting, gluing and sticking, playing with small worlds and cars and blocks and outside - it has been a busy and brilliant week.
The children have also started to learn how to self regulate and how to communicate via different means. All of these skills will be developed and embedded over their time at Kingsbury.
Well done Nicola’s class for a super, duper, start to school!
