Nursery - Autumn 1 - Week 4
Date: 30th Sep 2022 @ 4:38pm
What a lovely week we have had in Nursery.
We started the week by listening carefully to the different sounds we could make when drumming outside on various equipment. The children were then challenged to identify the sounds that they heard outside and discussed what their favourite sound was. Amazing listening skills Nursery!
On Monday we dropped everything we were doing to read some of our favourite books for Readathon. The children were able to choose their own book and discuss what they could see. We loved pausing our day to read lots of exciting books. For our mini topic, 'Home', we had a look at lots of different types of homes and their features. We then looked at some of the children's homes and they really enjoyed identifying their own. The children then talked about who is in their family and what their home looks like. Some children even painted a picture or created a collage of their home using a photograph to help them.
On Tuesday, Nursery demonstrated their fantastic movement and balancing skills in PE. They all had a go at balancing a beanbag on their head whilst walking around the room. We talked about always trying your best and never giving up, just like our 'SHINE' teddy, Leo. It was amazing to see the determination from the children and the joy in their success.
We had a special visit from Caroline on Thursday for our Godly Play. She came to tell us a bible story that had an important message. We had a discussion about what the children are good at and how they can use their special talents to help, care and look after other people, just like Jesus wants us to. The children came up with ideas about how we can all look after eachother. We learnt that we are all unique and have our own special talents.
We hope you have a lovely weekend and see you all next week!
Best wishes,
Miss Dalley and the Nursery team
