The Snowdrops enjoyed some time outdoors during the recent warm, dry weather! We took along some chalk and had lots of fun making pictures on the ground. Everyone participated actively in drawing round a shape and filling it in with chalk. We made our shapes look like lovely suns to match the good weather!

The Snowdrops have been learning all about toys and yesterday visited a pretend toy shop to choose a toy and exchange coins for a toy. The Snowdrops showed lots of interest in the different toys that were on offer and enjoyed a bit of ‘try before you buy’! The Snowdrops made careful choices and counted out the number of coins to match the number on the price tag. The Snowdrops were also very confident at playing ‘shopkeeper’ and working the till. Well done, Snowdrops!

On Friday, the Snowdrops celebrated Earth Day 2022. Everyone actively participated as we talked about our Earth and looked at our globe. We decided to invest in our planet by planting some seeds. Everyone showed lots of interest in feeling the soil and looking at the seeds and everyone confidently filled their pots, planted their seeds and watered them too! We are hoping the seeds will grow into beautiful flowers!
The Snowdrops also designed some lovely Earth Day t-shirts! Excellent work Snowdrops!!

The Snowdrops have been learning about toys through pictures and words. We have enjoyed fun matching games and had lots of success recognising pictures and words. Everyone showed lots of interest in the different pictures, saying or signing their names and giving good eye-contact towards all the pictures. Great work Snowdrops!

The Snowdrops showed lots of interest in making yummy Easter nests. Everyone enjoyed handling and exploring different food textures, and had fun using our fingers! We then had to mix, pour and stir the chocolate and cornflakes together – this was messy fun! The mixture was spooned into bunny cake cases and we counted some chocolate eggs to decorate the top of our cakes. They look great!

The Snowdrops have enjoyed exploring the senses during Science Week. Everyone actively participated in experiments relating to the senses, and everyone was very sensible when handling equipment and materials. The Snowdrops enjoyed using a ray box to look at colours and spinners to see the colours blend together. The Snowdrops were confident in giving their opinion during taste and smell experiments. Some Snowdrops were even able to manage ‘no peeking’ during the touch experiment! Well done, Snowdrops!
