We liked having the stepping stones and hoola hoops out to practice our balancing and co ordination.

  “It’s treasure”.

Block Play 

There was been lots of block play recently which has made the children do some great problem solving and team work, creating a variety of different models.

“Let’s make a big tower”.

Miss Hay took us in a long tube, we used it to put cars down, they went super fast into the basket!

We pretended we were at ‘Monster school’, we were great at following Miss Youngs instructions to gain us some stars, ours roars and stomps were very loud (and scary!!).

   

We had some fantastic costumes and face paint in Nursery for Halloween, even the teachers dressed up! 

          

We listened and danced to some music and played some musical statues and bumps for Halloween.

We created some spiders using loose parts.

We used glue and straws to make some ‘Ghosts’.

The craft area has been very busy this week with lots of different materials, some spooky pictures and models have been created!

We were experimenting with the pipe to see how fast the water flowed down and if it would go into the bucket.

” We’re going to Italy”.

We discovered the grass and the leaves were frozen, We said it was because it was ‘Cold’ and ‘Icy’.

 

 

“We’re making Scooby Snacks, they have baking powder and secret ingredients in them”.

 

 

 

We helped prepare the fruit for snack and spoke about all the different types you can get and had a conversation about fractions as we cut them.

 

“We’re making a sunshine Island, like I seen on my holidays”.

We were very lucky to be donated this old laptop by a parent (Thank you!) after it was requested by a child, it spurred on lots of role play and we said we were ‘Doing jobs’, ‘Working in the shop’ and it even was made in a ‘Till’. We spoke lots about currency, the cost of items and what items you might find in a shop and the role of a shop keeper.
