During this week we had some lovely conversations about our family pets belonging to children, mum's, dad's, auntie's and grandparents. Thank you to all who sent photo's in.
The children took themselves off on train journey's, big and small. On the decking a trail was created and helpful hands meant no one was left behind. creations of love and affection ended the week. And, last of all our performance in the talent show. Well done to all our little green frogs, you were fantastic! I don't know how we fit it all in but, we do!
The children have continued to request Dragons and loud music so we took our Dragon dance onto the decking, we have escaped to the calm of forest school for a bit and the decorators were busy in the home corner. Lots of creativity with paint, cutting and snipping, drawing and building with magnetic blocks. We continue our topic on animals and next week we will look at what animal's live in our homes. Happy weekend! EY team A week filled with Dragon dancing, noodle rolling, chop stick struggles, lantern making, yummy lunches and rice explosions!
That was just our Luna New Year celebrations. We also made time for creating, mark making, shape drawing, number ordering and a kennel full of dogs on leads. Happy Friday Our week has been filled with thoughts and talks of woodland animals, acorn class were very interested in Hedgehogs, where they live and what they eat. As the week has gone on we moved into a different environment and our conversations moved onto creatures in the ocean....
How big are they? What colour are they? how do they move? After reading Room on the broom together the children were inspired to make potions using playdough and a sprinkle of magic. Happy Friday! It has been a cold week on the decking, a cosy week inside and a burst of fresh air at forest school!
cold hands, warm coats, pink noses and wellie boots! Our topic for this half term is Animals. We will be exploring where they live, what they eat and how they move about. Along with exploring Chinese culture in preparation for the Luna New Year January 29th. We started the week watching one of our forest school tree branches being cut down after Storm Bert visited Nursery. There has been lots of glitter and glue as we created some festive decorations ready for our Christmas Fair. The children took a trip to space followed by camping by the beach with Karen watching the stars and the sunrise.
Have a lovely weekend! EY Team We started the week reflecting on Remembrance Sunday, the Poppy appeal and creating our own poppies. We ended the week with pyjama's, spots and talking about giving and sharing.
Quote for the week - it's not what you give it's the love you put into giving. Our first week back and a new topic to explore and enjoy. Our focus for this this half term is 'Let's celebrate' and it will take us all the way to Christmas and all the celebrating that comes with it....
In the mean time we have been creating firework images, relaxing with cosmic yoga and having Autumn leaf showers. We started the week with a bear hunt at forest school, celebrated Harvest festival at church and ended it numbers and dancing!
Thank you all for your food donations for Harvest and the Christmas market. Have a cosy half term! Karen, Florence and Kath |
