It is hard to believe we are almost half way through the year! It has been a wonderful term and the children have been very busy learning through play and developing a range of skills. The children have explored a range of activities to help develop their fine motor skills, such as threading, playdough, painting, drawing, pasting and construction.
Colour recognition has continued to be revised this term and the children have engaged in sorting activities to sort not only colours, but also basic two-dimensional shapes which we have recently started exploring. Counting skills are continually being developed as the children practise counting concrete objects, counting the number of children at school in the morning, counting how many children in the line, etc.
Next week the children will be receiving a 'Two Stars and a Wish' report via Parent CONEQT. The children have reflected on their experiences in Pre-Kindergarten to form part of the report and there is also a comment from me. Please take time to talk to your child about their two stars and a wish and to praise them for all of their achievements since commencing Pre-Kindergarten. I will also send another picture collage over the holidays so that you can see some of the wonderful experiences your child has had this term.
