Communication/Mana

Shahzaib has moved from the Kiwi Shahzaib is confident and group to the Tui group and is now communicates readily with his joining in the Islamic session. sister and similar aged peers. As Shahzaib enjoys these group times his English continues to flourish we and actively participates. expect to see his sentence structures expand and conversations with older peers to be maintained for longer periods. T. Bushra can speak Shahzaibs home language. Exploration/Mana Aotroa Shahzaib enjoys to actively exploring basic math and science concepts through sensory activities. His favourite at the moment is sand, although his mother has expressed concern of sand effecting his skin. We continue to offer sand in appropriate ways ensuring it does not get in his clothes or on his back/stomach which appear to be sensitive. Shahzaibs sister is about to graduate to primary school. It is important we prepare Shahzaib for this transition. We will do this by reinforcing his own identity separate of his sister, and strengthening his emerging friendships. Shahzaib has shown an interest in the Islamic sessions and prayer, we will support him in learning how to perform wadu and prayer.
