Nursery - Autumn 2 - Week 1

Date: 3rd Nov 2022 @ 2:24pm

We hope you all had a lovely half term break! It has been so lovely to have everyone back in Nursery this week!

Our focus book this week was ‘Room on the Broom’ by Julia Donaldson. The children have really enjoyed listening to the story and acting it out in the home corner using the props and costumes. It has been a delight to also see the children using their imagination to come up with their own stories and cast their own spells. We then worked together to sequence the story using cards and the children completed their own flow map to help them recall what had happened at the beginning, middle and end of the story. We have had so much fun exploring all of our 'Room on the Broom' themed learning areas. We even got to create our own potions, spells and magic wands!

We had a really exciting visit from Beth from the Pumpkin Patch who talked to us all about the wonderful world of pumpkins. We learnt all about the different types of pumpkins, how they grow and the life cycle of a Pumpkin. We have loved exploring all of the different pumpkins in Nursery this week. Thank you Beth!

We have been twirling, wiggling, jumping and galloping our way through this week, taking part in our whole school kindness video. We had so much fun dressing up in our costumes and accessories ready to show our moves on our bright sparkly stage and in our outdoor area. Nursery were all super stars showing their confidence and willingness to join in. What amazing dancers you all are!

Have a lovely weekend and see you all next week!

Best wishes,

Miss Dalley
