RL - EYFS
Remote Learning - EYFS
Whilst at home with young children our first tip is to try and have a loose routine – this won’t be the same as a school day but children do thrive when in a familiar pattern so plan a few fun activities throughout the day but don’t overdo it. Enjoy this time talking and playing with your children and if they get frustrated, change it up, give them a snack and make yourself a cup of tea – you’ll need a break too.
An example of what a day might look like could be something like this:
|
9:00 – 9:30 |
9.30-10.30 |
10.30-10.45 |
10.45 – 11.05 |
11.05- 12.00 |
12.00-1.00 |
1.00 -1.30 |

We’ve put together a few links to great websites full of ideas and activities that you can dip in and out of.
We would like children to do at least 20 minutes of Mathletics and reading each day and using their reading logs to record what they have read.
