Nursery Rhymes – Home Link
Our first rhymes for sharing are numbers 27 and 28 we have already noticed that the children are keen to perform Rock –A-Bye-Baby using our doll. We will continue these rhymes for a few weeks as the children become more skilled at reciting them. Just a note to say that Mrs Cumming has made up the props for 5 Currant Buns and they are now available for you to borrow from our Lending Library.
Have lots of fun reciting your rhymes at home. We would love to hear how well you are doing and look forward to hear what you think of our new rhyme props.
We had a great response to our rhyme workshop and we are delighted by your very kind comments.
Here are a few examples of your feedback.

Friends Are Special
Friends are special,
Friends are special,
So make a few, make a few.
Smile and say hello,
Everywhere you go,
How are you?
How are you?
Rock–a–bye Baby
Rock-a-bye baby,
On the tree top,
When the wind blows,
The cradle will rock;
When the bough breaks,
The baby will fall,
Down will come baby
cradle and all.
Woodland Explorers
Woodland Eplorers
Group 2
On our walk to the site this morning we all looked for circle shapes in our environment. We found them on lots of objects…….on cars, road signs, wheels and houses. Today we discovered ways to stay safe when playing in the woods. We learned about the boundaries – what they looked like and the reason for using them. We also practised playing safety games e.g. 123 Where Are You? It was also important that we risk assessed the area and placed plastic cones on top of hidden tree stumps.
We had lots of fun exploring the site. There was a very muddy puddle and we loved jumping in it. Our boots were really muddy! We also discovered little buds growing on some of the plants.
We all participated in a woodland workout to help us keep warm……..star jumps, stretches, tree press-ups and running on the spot. Our hearts were beating really fast when we were finished and we were feeling warm again. We had lots of fun playing hide-and-seek and found interesting places to hide.
Dam Simulations.
Writing to the Water Company.
After researching information about dams yesterday, the community of Clear Blue Valley received a letter to inform them that the dam is now being built in their community!!
They are writing persuasive letters to the water company (and some important people 😏) to convince them to move their dam somewhere else.
The children are using their notes from yesterday to support their argument.
P2 have been revising their common words and phoneme
