EY Team We had an energetic start to the week, joining the whole school on the field for 'Fun Fitness.' The nursery children were put into groups along with their older peers and thoroughly enjoyed being sporty, taking part and handling the obstacles along the way.
Mean while... on the inside we have been sharing stories in the cosy corner, creating adventures with the story stones, enhancing our communication and language skills with the help of the tinker tray, rescuing the fairies and princesses from the castle, discovering the blossom in forest school, using pens and chopsticks to recreate and putting as much as possible in the water tray on the decking. Quote of the week - A flower does not use words to announce it's arrival; it just blooms. EY Team Wild animals, turnips, face painting, mini beast in mud, name writing, quantity and counting, building, washing, forest schooling, pond dipping, dancing, singing and lots of laughing...… The list goes on!
Non stop learning, exploring and playing in Acorn class Joke for the week - Why do Gorilla's had big fingers? Because they have big nostrils! But we did have fun!
A week filled with Fruit printing Den building Problem solving Track building Risk taking Caring for the fish Building a habitat And, a Friday disco session! Thought for the week - Dream more, learn more, care more and be more See you all next week EY Team Our topic of 'Once upon a time' continues this week, the children have painted bear faces on paper plates for the display board, building different constructions on the decking, sharing stories, imaginatively taking on the bear family roles in play and dancing along to cosmic yoga in the woods and bear cottage.
World Book Day 2023 - The children looked fabulous, thank you for your efforts we joined the rest of the children in the school to show off the costumes during the assembly! Still hoping our SOS for pots, pans, and utensils that might be hiding away in the bottom of your cupboard? Our mud kitchen would really appreciate them :) Quote of the week - 'The best thing you can do with poetry is just enjoy reading it together with children' - Michael Rosen EY Team It was an exciting start to the week as our pond life is growing... we have frog spawn, thanks to Philippa Crisp (Rowan's Mum) along with a HUGE bundle of willow for the children to make camps and dens with in our forest school area.
We started our new topic for the term 'Once upon a time' and the children have enjoyed reading and retelling the story of goldilocks and the three bears. We have been mixing oats, behaving like bears and ordering size and quantity. The fairies moved in with the dinosaurs and we have been very creative with the water colour paints. A great BIG thank you to Oak class for making us some pancakes to taste, they were delicious! Reminder - Wednesday 1st March is our World Book Day Celebration and the children are welcome to come dressed as a book character. Quote of the week - If you want your child to be intelligent read them fairy tales. EY Team Half term again already!
It's been a week filled with Forest school, cutting and sticking with the colour monster, play dough full of love, shape colour sorting, letters and sounds, name writing, Just Dance, Jumpstart Jonny and quiet moments with friends. A reminder to provide a small healthy snack for morning and a non spill drink bottle with your child's name on. Quote for the week - All for Love and Love for all Happy half term EY Team |
