Once I Caught a Fish Alive
Our nursery rhyme of the week is Once I Caught A Fish Alive.
The children have been exploring lots of fish related activities from fishing to designing and making fish from recycled materials. They have also been learning about the seas and the oceans.
Planning
The children have been busier than ever this week! The story of The Three Little Pigs has led to a flurry of excitement and the children have been designing, building and testing houses while exploring the properties of materials.
There has also been a lot of talk about numbers and counting to 5, the children have been keen to find and recreate numbers in many different ways.
If your family would like to contribute to our planning process please speak to a member of staff of add your ideas to the comments.
Morning Fun
Creating a Waterfall
Our engineers decided this morning to build a waterfall. There was much discussion about which materials to use and how to put them together.
Then they had to consider how to move and pour the water and how to collect it at the bottom. Problem solving at its finest!
Litter Picking
We all worked together today as a team to clear the litter from the nursery playground.
In the end we found lots of litter and plenty of sneaky toys that had been lying hidden.
