This week in nursery we have been supporting children to recognise their name and the letter sounds in their name, through matching letters activities and games.

Next week, we will be exploring ‘Where our food comes from?’ Celebrating Harvest Time. The children will be acting out the story of ‘The Little Red Hen.’ Our literacy focus will be – can they retell the story, using puppets and props. We will also be baking bread, which the children are really looking forward to.

We asked the children to come up with ideas to change the home corner. They voted 6 votes for a building Site and 3 votes for a Dog Vets. The children helped change the area into a building site and have been using their imagination role-playing in the area.

 

In Gym this week we set up an Obstacle Course. This was a great activity to develop their gross motor skills. We also did some funky finger movements to support their fine motor skills.

On Wednesday at the woods, we played the can you find game. This week the children had to find objects that were hard and soft. We have added the items they have collected to our Inquiry Table in Nursery.
