We have had a fabulous week at Ladywell Nursery School!

The children have been developing their knowledge of 2D shapes through an activity set up where they were learning about their properties, matching them and making their own shapes using pipe cleaners.

Our floorbook has now moved on from volcanoes and has now gone in the direction of dinosaurs.  The children are enjoying learning about their different names through stories and watching clips on the Promethean board.  They had fun investigating the fossil stones in the sand tray using the magnifying glasses and are enjoying role-playing with the dinosaurs.  Next week we are going to further investigate by finding out what dinosaurs like to eat.  Please feel free to take a look and comment in our floorbook if your child has shared any of their learning with you.

They also enjoyed exploring the block play area where they have been learning the names of the different blocks and matching them as well as creating their own designs using their imagination.

Outdoors the children had fun in the snow making snow angels and discovering pieces of ice where lots of discussions took place about how water turns to ice.  They also enjoyed pouring water from one bucket into another developing their hand and eye co-ordination skills.

 

Well done boys and girls!
