Welcome home, Jimmy. 💜

Our edible Easter tuff tray was a big hit this afternoon!

[Ms Riley @MsRileyBirch]

Loved getting out in nature with my friends this weekend! So good for wellbeing and a great way to finish a busy week. 💜

Excited for our book to start this year! Been busy drawing some characters today. ✍️

[Ms Riley @MsRileyBirch]

@MrTaylorYewTree We loved having you all visit!

@MissAppoYewTree @YewTreeCP @MrTaylorYewTree No, haha. She just had them. 😂

Here are this term's sensory stories for our theme of 'To Infinity and Beyond'. We have chosen the books Whatever Next! and Aliens Love Underpants. Our focus is to develop communication through speech, sign, and symbols, along with early reading skills and sensory exploration. 🌌

@MissAppoYewTree @YewTreeCP @MrTaylorYewTree Got to give credit to Mrs Peers for them, can always rely on her for a prop I can't find online haha.

Today, we had some mark making and writing activities around The Fox and the Star. We warmed our hands up with some theraputty before using our fingers and paintbrushes to make marks in sand and glitter and writing key words or sentences. Look at the fantastic results! 📝

We visited the den today, and it was an incredibly immersive experience for our children with additional needs. We're also using @CBickfordSmith's 'The Fox and the Star', in the DSP and I've written a sensory story script for our children to fully access it. It's been a hit! 🦊⭐️

[Ms Riley @MsRileyBirch]

Can't wait to take the DSP to experience this tomorrow. Today we did a sensory story version of the book and my class loved it. We got so much language and engagement from the children, so can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. 🦊⭐️
