Sharing the Learning with our Mice via Tapestry!

Back to News
12th Nov 2023

The children have been sharing lots of fantastic home news classmates and staff in school.

When we share their Tapestry news it really encourages speaking and listening skills - and meaningful conversations help to broaden the children's vocabulary too.

The different activities, locations and celebrations shared by the children help the whole class. It develops in them the confidence to talk to others - and - as we model the use of descriptive language we are seeing that the children are refining their questioning skills. 

The weekly FS2 Mouse Club newsletter each week includes suggestions for activities to try at home - including sharing the story and song with grown-ups (and your mice)!
