Our Aistear theme for this half term is ‘The Doctor’s Surgery’. We are having so much fun learning through play in our role play area. We started the theme by watching a video of visiting the doctor’s surgery and then had a practice where we talked about what language we would use in the doctor’s surgery. We have used stethoscopes, checked temperatures and have even written prescriptions for our patients…so if you need a check up you know where to come!

We have a timetable so each group learn through imaginative play in the role play at least once a week. In our other groups we learn using the construction toys, play dough and stenciling kits.

Today (1/10/15) we were lucky enough to have three lovely visitors to help with our Aistear learning. We learnt so much about the wonderful work that nurses do. Have a look at our photos below.
