World Nursery Rhyme Week

This week the children are enjoying learning nursery rhymes. They have received a nursery rhyme colouring book to take home and the parents have got a little quiz to test their memories  . . . . no cheating!!

The focus rhymes this week are;

Monday – Miss Polly Had a dolly

Tuesday – Ring a Ring o’ Rosies

Wednesday – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (Once I caught a Fish Alive)

Thursday – Horsie Horsie

Friday – The Grand Old Duke of York

The children are taking part in group art work and listening to and telling us nursery rhymes.  We will be listening closely to the end rhyming sentences to see if we can hear the rhyming words.They will be completing a group activity of making up nonsense rhymes and finishing off well known rhymes with nonsense words.

“Question of the week” has changed to “Question of the Day” with a choice of nursery rhymes for the children to choose their preference – do they know the rhymes on the wall?  Do you know the rhymes on the wall?

On Friday it is Children in Need, so the children are welcome to come either in something spotty or in Nursery Rhyme Fancy dress . . do they know the rhyme they are dressed up as a character from? 50p donation to Children in Need.

A fun and busy week ahead!
