The children were all engaged in books today the library. Some of them enjoyed telling the story by looking at the pictures. The older children enjoyed taking time to tell a story to the younger children. There were lots of good sharing with the books 🙂
Signalong were back this week to teach us signs for family. We learned the sign for Mum, Dad, Brother, Sister, Grandad, Granny, baby and family. We enjoyed playing the game of ‘Guess who this item of clothing belongs to?’Â We also were all given a card with a picture of a family member on it. We then had to throw the bean bag into the correct basket. The children enjoyed throwing the beanbags.
The children then enjoyed using these items to dress up 🙂
The children were practising their throwing skills yesterday at gym. They were throwing the bean bags to their partners and then trying to knock down the skittles too. There were so many of them that got strikes!! They also enjoyed showing the adults how fast they could run too.
On Monday the children coming to nursery dressed up. We made potions and had lots of fun mixing everything together. The children enjoyed being outside and running around, playing lots of different games with each other. We also loved doing signalong, where we were learning the different signs for food!
We went for a morning walk in the Stromfirth road and were very lucky to meet local crofter George who had his sheep in pens waiting to be sheared. George showed us a lamb and we were all able to feel its fleece which was so soft. Sheepdog ‘Tibb’ was let out of the pick-up and we all got to stroke her.
The barins have loved learning all about different types of dinosaurs and making lovely wall displays with their artwork. We have also been learning about volcanos, and we did an experiment that looked like a real volcano. One of the barins took in a lava rock that was found in Shetland a long time ago, it was very interesting and everyone had lots of questions.
We loved doing an interactive story outside, we were acting out all the animal noises and actions.
We then came inside and created our own books, we had so much fun using our imagination to create our story.
After finding frog eggs on our walk this week, we were all interested to learn about the life cycle of a frog.
Everyone enjoyed the musical instruments this afternoon. Lots of fun and noise in the nursery.
