Children In Need

St Marys @ The Park went all spotty on Friday 18th November for Children In Need. Practitioners and children dressed in spots and gave £1.00 donation for the charity. Children also took part in a variety of spotty related activities.


The children developed their problem solving and matching skills, improving their maths skills by matching spotty and other patterns.


Children decorated paper plates with a variety of different coloured spots, while practitioners talked about spots, circles and things that are round. Children were encouraged to think of other things in their environment that are round. The plates were then made into baubels for a Christmas display.


The children developed their physical skills jumping in and out of spots, moving in different ways and following instrctions.


The children were encouraged to match different sized spots to their outline, supporting children's mathematical development, looking at different sizes, solving maths problems and exploring prediction.

 
We raised £99.44 for Children In Need, thank you to all our children and parents for your support.
