Stars of the Week: Charlie and Grace
Well done to Charlie and Grace for doing some amazing mark making this week. After listening to the story of ‘The Tiger Who Came To Tea’, Charlie and Grace wrote some shopping lists of what they would buy if a tiger was coming to their house. Keep up the great work!

This week in Nursery we have been thinking about the people who are in our family. After reading ‘The Big Book of Families’, children thought about who is in their family and some of the special things that they do together.
Children drew pictures of themselves and their family doing an activity that they enjoy together.

We also read the book ‘Our class is a family’, which helped us to learn that families come in all different shapes and sizes and that actually our class is too!

Next Week: In Phonics we will continue to explore listening to different sounds and seeing if we can match two sounds. We will be reading the story of Elmer the Patchwork Elephant, thinking about what makes him special, and decorating our very own Elmer.

Please find below the Curriculum Information for Nursery this year. If you have any questions please speak to Miss Bailey or Miss Godsell.

Additional ways to support your child with their learning can be found here.

Stars of the Week: All of Nursery

This week in Nursery, we all had the chance to show how far we have come with our learning! Just take a look at our name writing to see how far we have come! Well done to all of you Nursery, Miss Bailey, Miss Godsell and Debbie are very proud of you!

Next Week: Our learning will move online. All children have a home learning pack to work through and daily learning activities will be posted on the blog.

Stars of The Week: Kayleigh & Harry

This week Nursery have been learning about how Christians believe God created the world. Kayleigh and Harry thought carefully about different things that God created. They suggested lots of different animals and plants that they are thankful for. Well Done!

Here is a poem that might help you remember what God created.

Day one brought heaven earth and light.
It must have been so very bright!
Day two God made the clear blue sky.
A place for many birds to fly.
Day three brought land apart from seas.
With all the plants grass and trees.
Day four shone forth moon, stars and sun.
The work of God was not yet done.
Day five we see the fish and birds.
God did all of this with just His words.
Day six God formed all beasts and man
To finish His creation plan.
Day seven was especially blessed,
A day for worship and for rest.

What are you thankful for that God created?

Next week: Next week in Nursery we will be showing the teachers how much we have learnt! We are going to be reviewing all the sounds we have learned in Phonics and also showing how we can use these to help us write about animals.

Today we enjoyed celebrating World Book Day!

We dressed up in costumes of characters from different books. Can you guess who we are?

We also had a lovely time reading with our Year 3 Buddies – thank you for visiting us Class 3!

And finally we had a mystery reader… Mr Scott! He shared the book ‘Tiddler’ with us. Thank you Mr Scott!

What a busy book day!

Stars of the week: Reggie and Cecily
This week in Nursery we have been learning about different kinds of animals. Cecily and Reggie have shown great enthusiasm for their learning and when Jo from Animals UK came to visit they were gentle with all the animals that they got to stroke. Well Done!

In Nursery this week we had a visit from Animals UK. Jo bought lots of different animals that we were able to learn about and see. We got to meet:
Daisy and Toby the tortoises
Jessie the Burmese Python
Danny the Bearded Dragon
Sophie the Skunk
Angus the Lesser Tenrec
Amy the Fennec Fox

We got to stroke lots of the animals – and we even hard to work as teams to lift up Jessie. We loved meeting and learning all about the animals.

Here are some photos of our animal visit.

There will be more photos of us later in the week when it is World Book Day!

Lenni and Leonardo

Well done to Lenni and Leo, who both showed great enthusiasm making the pancakes yesterday! They were both able to talk about the ingredients we used, and how the pancakes were made. Both children enjoyed eating their pancakes, and chose raisins as their favourite topping!

Well done to both children!

 

Learning for next week:

We are very excited to celebrate Book Week next week, and will be taking part in lots of different book week activities. Our sound in Phonics will be ‘c’, and we will be problem solving in Maths.

Yesterday in Nursery we learnt all about Shrove Tuesday and why this is an important time for Christians. We learnt new words including ‘Lent’ and ‘Ash Wednesday’.

We had an exciting morning, making our own pancakes and eating them at snack time! We all helped to pour in the ingredients and mix it all together. Some of us had raisin pancakes, and some of us had lemon and sugar. They were delicious!
