This week in Ladywell

There has been a lot of interest in mark making both indoors and outdoors, many drawings showing a lot if detail, children trying to write their names and using notebooks to support their imaginative play. Children have also been using magnetic letters to create their name and other familiar words.

Some of the children were very engaged in a game in which they rolled a die, counted the spots and then jumped along the number line that number of times. They were careful to touch each spot as they counted it ensuring they were counting ‘how many’ accurately.

Threading beads drew a lot of interest and several children were keen to develop this further and make necklaces.

Outdoors there has continued to be  an enormous amount of investigation and experimentation going on in the enormous puddle ! The children are increasingly able to cooperate with one another as they fill and empty containers and discover ways of building structures with the guttering for water to flow down.

 

PLEASE REMEMBER TO PUT A COMPLETE CHANGE OF CLOTHES IN YOUR CHILD’S NURSERY BAG SO THEY CAN GET CHANGED IF THEY GET WET!
