Communication and Language
Working on building your child’s communication and language is at the heart of everything we do in Nursery.
We are working hard in Nursery to improve communication by developing our speaking and listening skills. We will be continuing to share and learn different action rhymes, stories and songs.
Each week, we will set homework on Class Dojo. Our story and rhyme of the week will be set as homework to help develop their communication and language at home too. We love to see homework completed each week!
