Foundation–Celebrating Learning

Foundation Mainstream

Foundation Mainstream has been getting ready for Class One! We have been having weekly library sessions with Lucy, practising our letter/sound connections for lowercase and capital letters, and we are becoming increasingly confident with our independent writing! During inside play we have been making shared puppet stories, further developing our craft skills, and also making some wonderful clay creations. As the weather is getting warmer, we have spent more and more time outside to eat together, do gardening, build stories in the sandpit with water and items from the yard, and play morning circle games. Our painting lessons have explored therapeutic, imaginative colour stories based on the zones of regulation (as we have all year). Our morning circle has slowly introduced new content as our focus has been predominantly on joyfully moving together, speaking together, and singing together as a whole group, cultivating a sense of reverence and confidence in our routine.
