This week in the main play room the children have been continuing to explore transport. We have been focusing on transport through sensory play and beginning to explore shape.

Curricular areas-    Numeracy/ technology/ science

In the art area the children have been continuing to explore pattern through looking at different types of leaves 🍁 🍃 we have been using describing words to discuss the patterns we have seen in the leaves.

In the outdoor area this week the children have been continuing to explore firemen and the importance of exercise. We have developed an exercise routine and building towers to knock them down.

We have had a very busy week at Mauchline ECC.⭐️

Indoors we have began looking at transport as a focus. This week we looked at cars, trains and planes. We created a diagram in the tuff spot to find out how the children travel to nursery. We also created our own ECC race track and explored speed and distance, the children were able to share and take turn during this experience. Due to the children bringing in their own autumn leaves, we started to explore autumn print in the art area.

Curricular Areas – Numeracy, Health and Well-being, Expressive arts

Outdoors we have been role playing and building our own fires and using pipes/loose parts to put the fire “out”. The children have also been able to demonstrate Safe Sam and Healthy Hamble (SHANARRI) through creating their own obstacle courses where they could demonstrate team working and risk assessing skills. Another area of interest has been ball skills where many children were developing their catching, kicking and throwing skills.
