Remember to bring your scooter with you to nursery next Friday. If you don’t have one or are unable to bring yours on this day, please let me know before next Friday so I can look out a nursery scooter for you to borrow.

Our hearing ears!
This week we have enjoyed learning all about our ‘hearing ears’. We made telephones using string and cups and we made megaphones. We liked the talking tubes the best. We heard lots of news through the talking tubes – a pterodactyl had escaped and a T-Rex was chasing it! We played a game where someone was blindfolded and another person had to say something – it was trickier than you think to guess who it was! During music time we had to guess the instrument someone was playing without looking. We were good at this. In gym we were taking monster, fairy, fast and slow steps depending on the different pieces of music we heard.

Our Seeing Eyes
This week we have been learning about our sense of sight. We enjoyed making binoculars, telescopes and spectacles. We used these to look for different things at the Woodies as well as for cloud watching. We saw lots of funny things in the clouds including a dragon cloud, a crocodile, a giraffe, a bubble pattern and dinosaurs. We dropped runny paint onto paper and used straws to blow the paint into different patterns. We talked about what we could see in our paintings. Our opticians opened and we have had lots customers coming for eye tests. We also make an eye colour chart. Next week we will be exploring our sense of hearing.
We need tubes!
On Monday and Tuesday next week we are making binoculars, telescopes and spectacles as part of our senses topic. Please bring in any junk we could use to make these e.g. kitchen tubes. Thank you.
