Welcome

Welcome I have tried to give as much information on the things that we do in Eriskay to keep some kind of routine for all of the children.  Please do not feel under any pressure to have your child sitting doing work all the time. They all love the songs we do throughout the day and I will add more if I've forgotten any. If you need any symbols let me know and I will share them on here or seesaw. We have been doing baking and we have been really enjoying it so if you can, then they would really enjoying doing some baking. We play with playdoh, and we use blocks and lego to build things so if you have these at home then this would be good to use. We also use toys to play and many of the children have started to show interest in cars and figures. Our topic is Scotland and Glasgow and I will upload pictures and video clips over the next week.  The other links on the main Drummore blog are great too and are worth looking at, Richards videos are all uploaded

Grouptime

Eriskay Grouptime Grouptime is a huge part of our daily routine. We do many songs and we talk about them. We also use lots of symbols so that everyone can join in. Good morning songs give an opportunity to say good morning and ask questions such as what did you eat for breakfast, did you brush your teeth, how do you feel today etc.  It also gives the children a chance to ask me these questions too. This is a good opportunity for you to check in with your child and keep those questions going. We sing days of the week, months of the year and seasons songs to check in and discuss the day, the date, the weather, the season. A big push this year has been on developing the skills of getting dressed, doing buttons and zips.  Washing hands, getting washed and looking after ourselves.  This is something that can continue at home.

Maths Songs

Maths songs We use our maths songs as ways to use number, shape and colour in our everyday lives. I will ask what number do you like or what's your favourite number. The same with colours and shapes. I will ask lots of questions such as show me something red or lets find a circle.  These are all things that can be done at home.
