🌟 NOW LAUNCHED 🌟 🚌Rhyme Town is a fully planned 8-week pre-reading & pre-writing scheme for Nursery and Reception aged children.� 🚌Each week, you can find a Rhyme Town lesson pack containing lesson plans, a weekly presentation, and all accompanying resources. This scheme is designed to be delivered by both newly qualified and experienced teachers and practitioners and explains everything step-by-step to give you confidence. 🚌Rhyme Town has been specifically created to engage children and introduce phase 1 phonics and mark making in a contextualised way, reducing cognitive load. The scheme also introduces over 8 nursery rhymes, many of which we have sung and recorded ourselves. 🚌Rhyme Town can be delivered as a whole class, or in small groups – whatever works best for your setting - and can also be used as an intervention scheme for older children who need extra support with phase 1 and readiness to write. 🚌Although there are 5 lesson plans for each skill per week, these can be delivered at any time to suit you, and don’t all need to be done in one week. 🚌The scheme lasts for 8 weeks, but you can revisit and review the scheme throughout the whole year. 🌟Explore the scheme: https://www.mrsmactivity.co.uk/rhyme-town-prereading-and-prewriting-scheme/

🐦OVER THE MOON to bring you yet another briliant morning jobs pack from the wonderful @miss_lvt_eyfs over on Instagram, based around the RSPB big garden birdwatch topic! 🐦 🐦Morning jobs are a fantastic way to use that ‘bitty’ time when the children are coming in first thing and make it into a valuable learning opportunity. 🐦These have been planned in a progressive manner to support children with their phonics, mark-making, maths and fine motor skills. 🐦The format is that there are 5 groups altogether that your class are split into. Each day children come in, put their belongings away and go to their allocated activity set up in the classroom. 🐦The following day they will do the next activity and so on, so by the time it gets to Friday children will have completed each of the 5 challenges. We will be creating one pack for each week of this half term - stay tuned for week 2 coming very soon!
