It has been lovely welcoming our children back to Nursery. The children have had lots of fun this morning exploring the indoor and outdoor environment and playing with all of their friends. We are looking forward to meeting our new Nursery friends on Monday.
For maths party day Nursery class took part in a fun outdoor maths lesson. We collected twigs and leaves and matched them to numerals up to 5.
Nursery class found lots of autumn treasures on their walk yesterday morning. We found conkers, acorns, sticks and lots of different coloured and sized leaves.
Nursery class have enjoyed making sparkly firework paintings and creating beautiful firework patterns using chalk.
Nursery class had lots of fun exploring the snow and making a snowman with our friends in Reception Class. After our winter walk we enjoyed a nice cup of hot chocolate.
In R.E Nursery have been learning about the wisemen visiting Jesus. During continuous provision the children decorated their own crowns.
This morning we arrived at nursery to find some of our toys had been frozen. Oh no! We worked together to break the ice to rescue our toys using warm water and plastic tools. Well done, Nursery!
The children in Nursery showed great enthusiasm as they went on a hunt to find numeral 3 cards that were hidden around the room. We have also played number 3 bingo and matched up 3 piece jigsaws. Well done everyone!
We love looking at books and talking about what we can see on the pages. We can hold the books the correct way up and can carefully turn the pages.
We enjoyed using collage materials to decorate lanterns and some of the older children enjoyed watching the Chinese Dragons in the hall.
We made snowmen using loose parts in gloop and had fun mark making using ice-cubes.
This week in Nursery we have been learning all about winter animals including naming and describing them and finding out where they live. We have also been developing our painting skills by painting snowmen.
This morning, Nursery class read the story Mr Wolf’s Pancakes and tasted some delicious pancakes at snack time. We also made funny face pancakes using our sticking and gluing skills. Well done, Nursery. It has been a lovely morning.
Nursery enjoyed learning about farm animals with Farmer Marie and Farmer Phil. The children found out lots of interesting facts and got the opportunity to stroke, hold and feed the animals. It was such a fun morning!
Nursery class have been counting and acting out the song Five Little Speckled Frogs. We are practising subitising by saying the number straight away without the need to count.
Nursery class have been observing caterpillars this half term. We waited two weeks for the caterpillars to turn into cocoons (just like The Very Hungry Caterpillar) and this week they transformed to butterflies. We gave the butterflies fruit and sugar before going outside to release them into the lovely sunshine. They were very friendly and we managed to hold some of them!
Nursery class had lots of fun using props to re-tell the story of The Three Billy Goats Gruff.
‘Run, run, run, As fast as you can, You can’t catch me, I’m the gingerbread man!’……..We have enjoyed reading the story ‘The Gingerbread Man’ in Nursery class this week. This morning we decorated our own gingerbread biscuits…they were very yummy!
Nursery class have been focusing on positional language ‘in’ and ‘out’. To help us to remember ‘in and ‘out’ we learnt the song They Hockey Cokey.
