Plough Green Pre-school

​Dear Parents and Carers,


I hope that you have all had a good week. The younger children have particularly enjoyed playing with the 'gloop' (cornflour and water) this week and have been splashing and mark making with it.  The older children have really enjoyed the role play area, where we have had the dollies.  The children have been finding the correct sized clothes to dress them in as some clothes are too big and some are too small.  


Stories we are enjoying this week: 


'Walking in the Jungle' 
sung by Fred Penner, illustrated by Debbie Harter in the two year room.  We used lots of props with this book.    
'Pants' 
by Giles Andreae and Nick Sharratt in the three/four year room (AM story)
'Peppa Pig - My Mummy and Me'
 in the three/four year room (PM story) 


Just for fun:   
Why not go for a walk with your child during the holidays and look at all the different coloured leaves at this time of the year.  Does your child know what happens to the leaves on most trees in Autumn (deciduous tree)?  Can you find a traffic light tree, i.e. a tree that has green, amber, and red leaves all at the same time?  Can you find a tree that does not lose its leaves (evergreen tree)?   We would love to see pictures of what you did together in the holidays on your child's Tapestry account.
