Some of the children have been making their little treasure treats to bring home tonight, others have been writing their letters to Santa. ๐ ๐ปThis has involved sounding out and tracing letters of the alphabet to familiarise them selves around it, giving them independence towards writing their own name.
They have been telling the adults about all the presents they would like for Christmas and then began a class discussion between themselves creating stronger friendship bonds.๐๐ป
