KG Update

We have had another fantastic week in KG with the children! KG1 and KG2 children have enjoyed learning all about different animals in their Arabic lessons, focusing on farm animals this week.

In KG1 English class, the children loved retelling the story of the 'Very Hungry Caterpillar', we had some amazing fine motor activities going on as the children threaded their own caterpillars using beads!

In KG2 English class, we have continued our learning about 'The Little Red Hen', the children have started to retell and sequence the story using Talk for Writing actions. They have also produced some wonderful writing linked to this using their Fred Talk and Fred Fingers to support spelling.
