Carpet Time
At the beginning and end of the session, we roll out our brightly coloured rug. We use an audible shaker to support your child to know what is happening and offer all children an opportunity to join in this activity.
During this time we provide an assortment of activities such as a story, music, share ideas and news, planned around the children’s interest. We support your child make links to activities on offer to motivate them to have a go.
Just before we end the session, we follow the same routine for carpet time. We reflect on our day before finishing with a story or music time.
Aim
To encourage your child’s listening skills and to feel a sense of belonging; to give the children and adults an opportunity to share their knowledge and learn from each other.
