Within the indoor learning environment, the children have continued to explore creating their own smoothies and healthy fruits by drawing their own mix of what a healthy smoothie may be. We had a variety of mixtures from spicy peanut butter to watermelon with pineapple. Some of the children were able to copy and write the fruit names from visual aid provided. The children’s learning was further extended as they made their own smoothies as part of their snack time experience.

The construction area continues to be popular area that the children seem to enjoy exploring in, with some children beginning to use constructed pieces in imaginative role play e.g.  it’s a chair, you don’t drive it.

Almost all children know and understand the green cross code of road safety- you must wait at the red man and can cross when the man turns green. Most children known about using a zebra crossing to cross the road and finding a lollipop person on the way to nursery/school in order to help you cross the road. All children discussed and knew the importance of holding someone’s hand to keep safe when crossing the road.

Some children have been exploring an old iPhone, utilised for photographs only, to find out about taking their own pictures and some showing an interest in making their own videos.

In the small word area, following from interest of ziggy and ziggys road safety road show, the children have been extending their knowledge of road safety using small word resources with car mat. The children then extended their knowledge of road safety with a walk in the community with Fresh Air Friday, singing the road safety song and demonstrating how to cross the road safely.
