This morning we are having some football coaching from Danny – our SFA coach. \u00a0Tomorrow we are starting to learn about Chinese New Year. \u00a0Scott very kindly brought in beautiful traditional silk Chinese clothes- a boys set and a girls dress to show us. \u00a0We are going to create a fabulous dragon head in the art area this week, and on Friday we are all taking part in a dragon dance round the school to wish people “Kung Hay Fat Choi!” and bring in the Year of the Cockerel in style! \u00a0Jinny – our lovely student is full of cold today and couldn’t come to nursery, but we have plans to watch a wee film about Chinese New Year tomorrow.<\/p>\n
Gym on Tuesday is for the Blue and Orange groups. \u00a0We had great fun with a massive parachute last week – who knows what will happen tomorrow? \u00a0The ladies no doubt have a plan”! \u00a0Red, Yellow and Green groups will be exploring feelings, in PATHS.<\/p>\n
Last week Lynn went on a “Word Aware” course and has come back with lots of good ideas on how we might all extend our vocabularies. \u00a0We are going to start a “Words of the Week” wall in the hall and I’ll let you know what they are on the blog too. \u00a0We are looking forward to learning some really interesting words to drop into our conversations! \u00a0If anyone has a favourite word, (which can be shared by children!!) \u00a0we welcome suggestions!<\/p>\n
I went on a course on Nursery Planning- not nearly as exciting as Lynn’s – but I have come back with the resolve to listen to the children even more than we normally do, to pick up on what their interests really are and what they want to be learning.<\/p>\n
Lynn’s next course is next Tuesday – a thrilling Cooksafe refresher course!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
