During  music this week, the bairns showed off their dance moves in a game of musical statues.  We moved around the hall to the music and practiced for our graduation ceremony.  Heads, Shoulder, Knees and Toes was our finale and it was so fast!

The preschoolers had their first experience of lunch in the canteen this week.  They lined up at hatch to receive their main course and then to the pudding station.  They ate their lunch together and then cleared away their scraps into the bins, before putting their trays away.

We sat in the outdoor for our Bookbug session this week, starting with the Hello song and some nursery rhymes.  The story this week was “The Grinny Granny Donkey”.  The bairns joined in by completing some of the rhyming words of the story.  We also used the stretchy blanket for Five Fat Peas in a Pea Pod Press.

Our transition PE session included finding a P1 partner for a clapping game, catchy and working in small groups for pattern movement and recognition.

The bairns’ outdoor play has included lots of role play games, water play and construction.  They have used the large tarpaulin to create a wind shelter and also used it hide inside and travel around the garden in a small group.

We had two visits to the Salvation Army polycrub this week.  During the first visit we planted flowers, met the friendly goats, fed the chickens in their new home and tasted a fresh strawberry.  During our second visit we planted radishes and cabbage, decorated a sunflower pot and fed the hungry goats.

Here is a selection of the remainder of our play, learning and development for this week.  We tried making popcorn using dried sweetcorn but it didn’t go to plan.
