This week in nursery we are\u00a0exploring early geometry by investigating the properties of basic shapes.\u00a0 We are going to learn to identify and count angles and be able to spot shapes in our environment, thinking about why we use different shapes in our buildings and in the design of the things around us.\u00a0\u00a0It would be great if you could do a bit of shape spotting at home too!<\/p>\n

In our playground the children showed an interest in birds they saw, and\u00a0were asking what they were.\u00a0\u00a0 Eileen created a lovely wee bird watching window with pictures of birds to look out for, \u00a0and binoculars to have a closer look, in our wee playhouse.\u00a0 This has been really popular and some children spend ages in there peeking out the window.\u00a0 Our lovely student, Sophie, has furthered the interest by making bird feeders with the children and they have hung them up near the window to encourage our feathered friends to visit for a snack.\u00a0 We are hoping to make a bird table so we can continue to watch them through the seasons and watching the bird boxes in the garden and the orchard for any signs of nesting in the spring.<\/p>\n
