The children have participated in lots of activities this month that have linked with nursery rhyme week and children in need. We have also been busy doing lots of other activities – here are some of the things we have been learning.
During group time Cole has been practicing clapping out the syllables in his name. He was able to identify his name had one clap, therefore we tried to clap the syllables in other words.
We have started to speak about the different senses we have and which part of the body we use for each sense. Harry was using his sense of sight to paint a picture of one of his friends. He could identify that we use our eyes for our sense of sight.
Olivia has been using her imagination creating her own stories with a beginning, middle and end. Olivia was able to act out the story she created using the puppets at the puppet theatre.
Katie was developing her letter formation outside using a stick to write in the mud. She chose some word cards to try and copy the letters on the card.
Callum has been practicing turn taking and working as a team with his friends. He was able to identify the shapes square, rectangle, circle and triangle when participating in the game.
Abi used her imagination to create an imaginary fire outside. She was able to recall the steps we take when using the firepit at nursery. She told her friends not to step inside the circle because the fire is hot and dangerous. She could also identify who would help if there was a real fire.
Logan has been working hard to develop his mark making skills into writing letters. He is able to copy a few letters to try and create the word on the board.
