With the super weather at the start of the week, we have been able to be outside to speak about our world around us.\u00a0 We managed to have an outside registration one morning and stayed outside having more physical play time with a variety of obstacle course objects, chalkboards, water tray, bikes, hoops and space hoppers.\u00a0 The children were able to explore some risks while climbing up on and jumping down from the cable reels.\u00a0 We looked at bigger numbers this week on the large number square mat.<\/p>\n

Some of the children were interested in the large ship that has been in Dales Voe recently, so we looked at some photos that Lisa shared, and learned that this was the largest crane ship in the world.\u00a0 It had taken legs from an oil rig ashore to Lerwick, to be disposed of safely.\u00a0 The ship is called the Pionneering Spirit.\u00a0 We spoke a lot about the jobs that people do on boats and oil rigs, why we need oil and what happens when an oil rig comes to the end of its life.\u00a0 The children had lots of big questions and were interested in finding out more.<\/p>\n

We had a caddy lamb visit us this week, which the children and staff were delighted with.\u00a0 The lamb was wearing a nappy and took time out of their busy day to play with us in the nursery setting.\u00a0 They explored the peerie house, the music station and enjoyed a feed from their bottle.<\/p>\n

Linda has been starting to speak about planting some pea seeds with the children this week.\u00a0 They have been soaking in water and getting bigger in size.\u00a0 When they start to grow shoots they will be ready to plant.\u00a0 We are keeping an eye out to see the changes that happen.<\/p>\n

Meg has been looking at bar graphs with children this week.\u00a0 We have started to speak about how we can find out information from bar graphs.\u00a0 We have spoken about the number of children that come to nursery each day, and will look at how that information is put into a bar graph.\u00a0 We will also be making a bar graph to find out which colour of eyes is the most common in our nursery class.<\/p>\n

The exciting news for this week’s transition activities, is that we found out who everyone going into P1 after summer will have as their “buddy” (current P6 children).\u00a0 The buddies came on a walk this week, met the children in P1 for a play, and also met the children in nursery for a play.\u00a0 This is helpful for after summer, as the buddies will look out for the children in the playground when they start P1.<\/p>\n

We have played inside and outside with our friends, buddies and adults this week.\u00a0 We have asked lots of questions and improved our skills in such a lot of different ways.\u00a0 We follow the interests of the children to help us plan for their next steps in learning.\u00a0 We have had such a lot of fun.<\/p>\n
