Last week of term!

Following on from The children role playing ‘Going shopping’ we took the check out and till out this week, we found some swimming costumes and clothes to buy along with the groceries.

We did lots of climbing, balancing and running over

at the football pitch.

 

We used the parachute out in the wind,

we went around it, over it and under it, holding it

carefully so it didn’t blow away!

The children said they were looking for Frog Hoppers in the cuckoo spit found on flowers, they found not one but seven of them! We had a conversation about Frog Hoppers colour, shape and how many legs it had. The children discovered it was an ‘insect’ because of it having 6 legs. The children helped one another look for more frog hoppers by looking around for cuckoo spit and said “They live on the spit”.

“Look at this baby caterpillar”

We watched a  clip about Super Tato (From The Sue Hendra books We’ve been reading) and found it hilarious!

Miss Morrison brought in some crabs, lobsters, starfish & a scabbymans head that was caught at the creels. We spoke lots about the different types of crabs and the facts about each creature.

We then walked down to the beach to release the creatures back into the sea and watched them move freely through the water.

We found some “treasure” and some “welks” whilst at the beach too.

Sports Day 

Everybody did amazing at taking part in the races at sports day and cheering each other on.

“We’ve made a swimming pool, This side is for the big guys and this one is for the little guys”.

The train track has been popular, we worked together to fit the track together and figured that lots of the trains could stick together because they had magnets on them.

We had a ‘Colin the Caterpillar’ come to play at Nursery for the final day before the Holidays, he chomped a lot of leaves throughout the day so we thought he must be like The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
