Our Morning With such a stimulating and
natural outside learning environment we spend a lot of the session in the
garden. Inside, the children regularly participate in different craft and
cooking activities alongside free play. We always have a large selection
of books out, and some sort of tactile play each session, e.g. playdough. Once the children are familiar with our
environment and our routine, we allow them to choose their own activities
during free-play. They also have regular free choice from the craft trolley.
We regularly use the computer with the children during the second half of the
session. We have a library for the
children. They may choose a book each session and take it home to read.

This is an outline of our morning.
Some days may vary slightly, e.g. when we are doing cooking. 9.15 Arrive, children put their
photos & names on the board to register. One child is the Helper for the
session. 9.15-10.20 Activities, e.g. painting,
puzzles, craft, board games, sorting, playdough,
mathematical activities, free play, sand, water. 10.20-10.30 Circle time, Interest Tray (we ask
the children to bring in something related to the theme each session. They
then have the opportunity to talk about what they have brought in, with the
rest of the group). 10.30-10.50 Physical activity, e.g. music and movement, hopscotch,
parachute, balancing, ring games. 10.50-11.00 Story. Followed by a trip to the toilet and washing of
hands. 11.00 -11.15 Milk and water are offered with
fruit at mid-morning and mid-afternoon sat in small groups at the tables. We
like, where possible, for each child to bring in a piece of fruit or
vegetable sticks, to share. The children take it in turns to give out the
drinks and fruit. 11.15-12.00 Free play and children's choice,
e.g. computer, fantasy corner, choice of tabletop
activities from trolley, self-selection from craft trolley. 12.00-12.15 Singing |
