We have been enjoying some different Investigative Plays this term.  Last week we followed procedures and made fairy bread.  This week we are following procedures to set up a dinosaur sand play…what will we get up to after that! We use lots of visuals to communicate together and picture boards can help us know what comes next simply by looking and noticing.

Our gorgeous new dolls are helping us to practise role playing.  We can look after our dolls by brushing their teeth and hair.  We changed their clothes and nappies too.  Sometimes we carry them around with us and sometimes we read to them.

The book you see in between the dolls is our PODD and we use it to listen to our teachers.  There are hundreds of visuals in our PODD that we will learn over time.  We hope you have noticed the new communication sign in the playground.  CHALLENGE!  Perhaps you could try communicating with your child one day…remember you can only use the visuals on the sign, gestures or any sign language you both know.  GOOD LUCK
