EAL theme – The Local Community – The Supermarket
Last week the children were learning about the church, the convent and the canal in Kilcock.  This week we are learning about supermarkets.
•	Talk about and name the different supermarkets in Kilcock.  Point to these supermarkets if you are out for a walk in the village.
•	The powerpoint  below from twinkl introduces your child to some of the English vocabulary we use relating to supermarkets.  It introduces children to places in the supermarket, people who work in the supermarket , what we see and what we use in the supermarket.
https://www.twinkl.ie/resource/roi-t-20162118-the-supermarket-aistear-powerpoint
•	Play Activity – One of the most enjoyable ways to learn about the supermarket is to play shop at home.  If you get a chance help your child to set up a play area based on shopping this week.  Another idea is to build a supermarket with lego / bricks / empty boxes.
•	Complete the matching activity attached below based on vocabulary linked to the supermarket.
