Monday<\/p>\n

Children are showing lots of interest in outdoors at the moment, especially nature\/bees. We have had a few bees \ud83d\udc1d \u2018visiting\u2019 the nursery both inside and out! We have also been noticing the new bulbs\/plants growing in the garden. Some children have been exploring pattern making using the polydron by designing and creating a variety structures and some children were inventing their own games also using the polydron encouraging the sharing of ideas and turn taking skills.<\/p>\n

Tuesday<\/p>\n

Today we used some real flowers as inspiration for our painting. This created lots of discussion about colour shape and size.
\nSome children enjoyed exploring shaving foam outdoors \u00a0exploring mark making and using a variety of descriptive language to explain the feeling of the shaving foam. Some children then added some of the dinosaurs to the shaving foam engaging in a variety of role\/imaginative play. \u00a0.
\nGroup 1 enjoyed a very windy visit to the beach today. \u00a0A few children were mesmerised by the waves watching them crash to the shore. This also created discussion about the size of the waves and the speed they were crashing to the shore.<\/p>\n

Wednesday<\/p>\n

Today some children used a variety of mark making materials\u270d\ufe0f\ud83d\udd8d\ufe0f\u270f\ufe0f at the drawing\/writing table today to share\/express their ideas and thoughts. Our three bears\ud83e\uddf8\ud83e\uddf8\ud83e\uddf8 were being used well in nursery to retell the Goldilocks story by some children. A few children have been exploring the woodwork bench , experimenting with different sized\/shaped pieces of wood to create models. They were using a variety of mathematical language whilst creating their models and using the different tools. A few children found different kinds of bees\ud83d\udc1d in the garden creating lots of discussion about size and colour.

All children participated well during our gym session today, exploring a variety of different gym equipment, whilst developing our gross motor skills and hand\/eye coordination . A few children demonstrated their sorting skills using the paint game. All the children celebrated one of our children\u2019s 4th Birthday by sharing some yummy cup cakes and singing Happy Birthday.
\nWe are checking the \u00a0beans we planted everyday to check if they are growing yet and to see if they need watered!<\/p>\n

\nSome children planted some more beans outdoors discussing what they need to help them grow \ud83c\udf1e\ud83d\udca6\ud83e\uded8. A few children asked to make playdough following the recipe and measuring the ingredients\u2696\ufe0f. This created good use of \u00a0some mathematical, and descriptive language. Some children,whilst developing their gross motor and turn taking skills, explored different ways of getting on and off the climbing cubes whilst others experimented how fast the different bikes and scooters went discussing which was the fates and which was the slowest! \ud83d\udeb2\ud83d\udef4.<\/p>\n
