STAY AND PLAY WEDNESDAY 31ST JANUARY 9:00-10:00. Parents, Grandparents and family members are welcomed into class to join in with some story themed activities, prepare yourselves for a very naughty bus!!!!!!
Our topic is transport. Some of the activities we will be doing may include, junk modelling cars, writing bus or train tickets, looking at information books to learn interesting facts, Role play airport, looking at vehicles that are used to help us - ambulance, fire engine, police car... Look out for examples of our work as the term goes on!
Our big focus this term is developing our speech so that we are confident communicators. We are going to learn to take turns in conversation by listening to others and responding to what they say. If you would like any ideas of how you could support this at home please come and ask as I have information sheets giving tips and advice.
The children have shown a real interest in numbers and counting and this is something we will be developing further. We aim for all children to be confident counters using number names in order to at least 10. We will also be using these numbers when counting small groups of objects. The challenge this term is to notice that groups of objects can be shown in lots of different ways but still have the same total. For example 2 cows and 2 sheep has a total of 4 animals all together, but the total amount of animals stays the same even when there is 1 cow and 3 sheep. REMEMBER THERE IS A RANGE OF MATHS GAMES AND CHALLENGE CARDS YOU CAN TAKE HOPE TO SUPPORT YOU CHILDS LEARNING.
We have been very busy learning with our 'Once upon a time' topic. We learnt how to hold a book the correct way up and turn the pages from left and right. Lots of our work included acting out parts of the stories and learning about the characters in the books and what happened to them. We also learnt that a setting is where the story is set and used lots of different props from Nursery to recreate these.
Here is some examples of the work we have completed:
Amy retold her favourite story using the pictures, shouting 'BOO' when she got to this page.
Our interpretations of the Gruffalo using play dough.
Logan used the props to retell the Gruffalo story.
We had to complete a very important challenge when we read 'The Gingerbread man'. He needed help to cross the river, so we had to become scientists and test if he could swim! "Look he's all soggy in the water!" "He sink to the bottom"
In our maths we have learnt what a tally is and used this in lots of different ways to show how many of something we have got or done.
On remembrance day we learnt why people wear poppies and why it is so important. The children decided that they would like to make their own poppies that we could display in class and wear.
Welcome back to a new year in Nursery. It has been wonderful to welcome old and new children, we have been very impressed by the children's attitude and behaviour.
Here is some examples of what we have achieved in our first 2 weeks at nursery.
Oakley used a variety of objects in our maths area whilst sorting, he decided the easiest way to sort them was by colour.
We have been trying to hold our pencil in the correct grip and draw a face using circles and lines.
We found the cutting table and we are learning to make snips in papers.
Amy found the whiteboard and pens and then showed us how she can draw circles.
Logan used natural and found objects to make a face.
We have learnt to name different parts of the body. We used some of these body parts to make silly faces.
Listening to others in conversation in one to one situations and small groups.
Follow a set of instructions.
Joining in with some Nursery rhymes.
Drawing lines and circles
Help putting my coat and shoes on.
