Thank you to all the families who were able to join us this term. We shared lots of learning activities with families able to interact and benefit from sharing ideas with other families in the nursery.

In the session Exploring Stories Through Play – we used everyday objects to retell familiar stories.

“The more stories children hear, the more they will come to understand how stories work, and the more fun they will be able to have when playing with them.”

We used different sizes of boxes, jugs and bags as we discussed volume and capacity.

 

In the topic Exploring nature 

“Being outside and exploring nature helps children grow and develop as they learn about the natural world around them”

Using loose parts found in the natural environment -shells,stones and sticks the children created transient art, repeating patterns and symmetrical structures.
