Parenta Magazine March 2020
March is the month many of us have been waiting for since last October…the clocks ‘springing’ forward, giving us lighter evenings! This is also the time of year when people start thinking about their annual spring clean; and wanting to get rid of the old stuff in their homes and businesses. Taking part in ‘National Old Stuff Day’ on 2nd March is a great reason to get started with the spring cleaning in your setting! In Tamsin Grimmer’s article this month “Keep on talking and mind the gap”, she reveals that almost half of year one children lack the vocabulary they need to access the curriculum. Using a holistic approach, we have chosen some activities that you can implement in your setting that will help expand the children’s vocabulary, but at the same time covering many areas of learning and development in the EYFS. Have a great month and please don’t forget to put your clocks forward by one hour at 1am on Sunday 29th March! Happy reading!
