Nursery Learning Outdoors
The children have had lots of fun playing and exploring outdoors. In music we have been learning about percussion instruments so the children wanted to hear the sounds the tractor tyre could make. They have also been using the trees to play hide and seek.
Length
This week for maths we have been exploring length.
We looked objects that were long and short and then went into the classroom and found other objects to compare.
Musical Moments
The children have enjoyed exploring different sounds on our new music wall that the children created together this week. We listened to the sounds the wooden items made when hit and described how they are different to the sounds created by striking metal objects.
Autumn Fun
The children in nursery have been learning about autumn and have collected lots of autumnal treasures. We have had fun outdoors looking for more signs of autumn, finding mini-beasts, dancing in the wind with our scarves and reading in the sunshine.
Rain doesn’t stop play!
The children in Nursery A have been trying out our new waterproofs today. So much fun!
All Aboard!
Look at the train we made in nursery this week using brilliant teamwork skills and language to create this collaborative masterpiece! Well done children!
Bird spotting in Nursery A
Some of the children have been keen to find out about the different birds they might see in the nursery garden.
Snack Time in Nursery A
Here are some of our nursery children enjoying snack together. Snack time in nursery invites us to turn take, communicate, listen and sometimes try different foods. We develop independence by choosing our own snack and by washing up our own plates and cups when we have finished.
Starting our phonics journey!
This week the children have started their phonics journey and have been introduced to the first sounds. The children have then independently created the letter sounds using loose parts and through mark making! What superstars!
Self portraits using natural resources
As part of our RSHE work, the children have been looking at self - portraits and what makes us special and unique. The children then used loose parts to create a self portraits!
