All of these resources are available for families to borrow, there is no signing out procedure and resources can be kept for as long as your family are enjoying them.
Further adventures in 2D shape today with the children using geo boards and bands to make 2D shape pictures and in the mark making area they explored different ways of drawing them.
Yesterday in our food technology area the children used the excess bananas to make healthy muffins. They took care measuring out the ingredients, worked hard to mash the bananas and to mix everything together.
After they spooned the mixture into muffin cases cases they were placed into the oven to cook. The smell of them cooking was amazing!
At the final taste test they were voted a great success.
The children are keen to develop their junk modelling, please can you send clean junk into the nursery to allow the children to continue building their ideas.
The children uncovered a bag of sticks today and quickly embedded them into their play. They used them to thread rings onto in a repeating pattern and then they counted how many there were.
This is maths week and today the children have been continuing their exploration of 2D shapes. Today they have been making rockets out of shapes, drawing and matching shapes, building them and using them when baking.
In our food technology area today the children were making scones.
They enjoyed rubbing the flour and butter together, mixing in the other ingredients, kneading the dough, rolling it out then cutting the shapes.
Then they went into the oven to cook.
Finally they were enjoyed at the snack table, they were delicious!
This week the children have asked to explore 2D shape. We have started the week by using 2D shapes to create pieces of art and by using technology to sort shapes by type.
The children have been loving cooking and baking in our food technology area. This week alone they have made popcorn, pineapple juice, fruit kebabs and roti.
