Regulate, Share, Repeat

We have been exploring the resources in the nurture room on a Friday. This session involves exploring a resource for five minutes and then swapping with the person next to you until you have had a turn of all resources. The pupils have shown excellent concentration, good listening and perfect sharing. Well done team!

Perfect Playdough

We love using playdough as part of our regulating routine. We enjoy moulding and marking the playdough while catching up with each other.

Term 1 Topic- Fairyland and Fairytales

This term our topic is Fairytales. We have been looking at traditional tales and covering some skills and knowledge linked to the books. The Fairyland Dragon has came for a visit and is keeping an eye on us and helping us as we enter Fairyland. The storybooks we have looked at are:

The Enormous Turnip– We learned about root vegetables and vegetables that are above and below ground. We also looked at how the water travels through plants and vegetables by putting celery into dyed water. The messy tuff tray allowed us to retell the story and made some turnip soup as a team- it was a huge success.

Little Red Riding Hood– We looked at good vs evil, created wanted posters for The Wolf and looked at artist Wassily Kandinsky to create a blanket for Granny.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears– So far, we have tried some coloured sematic writing and created beds and chairs for Baby Bear using Lego.

We have also been covering some literacy and comprehension skills including:

  • Sequencing
  • Spot the Mistake
  • True, False, Can’t Tell
  • Find it and Prove it questions

  • We have enjoyed some tuff tray activities such as fishing for words to encourage our reading and sounding out
