Summer Term – Week 7


Dear Parents,


This week, we celebrated Father’s Day with lots of love and creativity!









The children worked on two special activities:

• A Father’s Day card

• A Super Dad bookmark


We also began practicing for Sports Day—and let’s just say, getting everyone to follow instructions was a workout in itself! 😂

Vocabulary Focus:

This week, we introduced the words:

flying, lying, sad, and grumpy


Group Time Highlights:

• We read Dogs Can Fly

• Sang nursery rhymes

• Practiced counting from 1 to 10

• Worked with groups of objects

• Learned a fun new numbers song

Montessori Activity:


Our sensory experience this week was a sand pit activity. The children played with Kinetic Sand, and afterwards, used a small brush and dustpan to clean up the sand they had spilled on the table—great for building responsibility and motor skills!

A Quick Look at Our Week:

• Monday – Italian:

We practiced Italian songs together.

The children baked delicious “tight’s biscuits” for Father’s Day and enjoyed decorating them.

Back on the laptops! We practiced using the mouse to improve hand-eye coordination.

For music, we played fun eco-themed games.
