Our Daily Routine is essential to ensure that children settle in to our setting. We keep our routine the same each day. The children in Little Owls take part in a variety of activities across the day. Our daily routine include  Listening & Attention activities that allow us to support the children in paying attention to an activity and to practise conversational skills, turn taking, understanding and answering questions and developing memory skills. Maths activities allow us to support counting, numeral recognition, shape awareness, positional language, pattern, size and capacity. The children also take part in Physical activities. These activities allow us to support the children in developing their fine motor skills, building strength in their hands in readiness for mark making and using one-handed tools. The children also take part in a daily mindfulness activity each afternoon as a class. These allow the children the opportunity to reset and learn about emotions. Emotional literacy is key to give the children the skills to explain how they feel and how to regulate after an episode of dysregulation. The children will also access Adult Led Activities throughout the week. These activities are based on our weekly focus and will be completed on an individual basis with a grown up or in a small group with adult support.
