This year in order to support independence we are introducing a ‘Skill of the week’. This is something we will be helping the children achieve, by focusing on for the week, giving them lots of opportunities to practice/try, and rewarding with a specific sticker if they achieve it. The skills will help support the children generally in their movements and involvement in the preschool routine and activities, and go along way in supporting ‘school readiness’ too. They start off relatively easy and many children will already be able to do some of the skills.
