DD1 decided she wanted a story today, so as well as the usual rhymes, we read The Hungry Caterpillar, and learnt a new song about caterpillars too. (As soon as we got home, DD1 wanted it again, but I can't remember it. Hopefully next week I'll have learnt it a bit better.)
Afterward, there was also a meet with someone from the council about funded early years education. I said that we're not taking up our place, until at least Sept, because I want to HE. She mentioned some of the HE groups in the area (I've already met up with them) and said I could talk to one of her colleagues (an independent advisor) about schools in the area (she had already noticed how intelligent DD1 is, and we had a discussion about the Gifted and Talented register, and things) or about the legal side of registering to HE. I told her that actually there are no legal requirements to HE, and if your child hasn't been in school at all, they won't ever meet an education welfare officer and they will not be part of a register. She seemed interested, but let me know what services and help was around in the area.
So, the books we borrowed this week:
- Blackbeard the Pirate by Gowar and Phillips
- Sam's Spots by Jenner and Langley
- Stomp, Dinorsaur, Stomp by Mayo and Ayliffe
- See Inside Ancient Egypt by Lloyd Jones and Hancock
- Buster's Birthday by Campbell
- Roadworks by Sutton and Lovelock.
