Hi everyone, Michelle here 🙂
Welcome to the sharks fortnightly blog.
I hope you all enjoy a highlight of our learning so far.
The yellow group have been enjoying a variety of Christmas activities in our playrooms!
From Nursery Rhyme Week to beginning to explore our senses indoors and out, we have had a busy month! The children have been singing Rhymes, making soup for the spiders, mixing up some delicious lemonade in line with beginning to explore their senses, mark making and exploring words through puzzles. They have all been involved and had great fun exploring the various experiences throughout the rooms and green space.
Over the past couple of weeks we have been exploring the human body in the Gruffalo room whilst in the Elmer room, the kids had access to wonderful firework learning experiences.
Ava loved using the dice outside. She had great fun with her friends following the instruction in which it landed on. Above, you can see Ava skipping.
Charlotte took a great interest in the babies. She took her time in learning how to put on the vest and made sure she had every last popper done!
Allan enjoyed using the light box to see the skeleton beneath our bodies, he did a great job of identifying the legs and then pointing to the same area of his own.
Matthew took an interest in building a rocket outdoors. He displayed great problem solving when he discovered the best way to get his friend inside it was to lift it up over his head.
I often find Braxton with a paintbrush in hand and when it came to fireworks it was no different. He was inspired by the two images of the easel and used fantastic brushstrokes to create his own beautiful firework display.
Aaron has loved exploring the different parts of his body he can use for moving the ball. Above, he had great fun flinging the ball up into the air then catching it. He also enjoyed kicking it around.
