Story time and rhyme time

Pip and Posy :The Snowy Day by Axel Scheffler

Describing words

snowy cold warm stripy puffy waterproof cosy woollen big small cross sad happy kind unkind wet dry

Rhyme Time

Incey Wincey Spider

Incey Wincey Spider climbed up the water spout,

Down came the rain and washed the spider out.

Out came the sunshine and dried up all the rain,

Incey Wincey spider climbed up the spout again.

Incey Wincey Spider climbed up the winter tree,

Down came the snow and made the spider freeze,

Out came the sunshine and melted all the snow,

Incey Wincey Spider had another go!

Christmas Time!

Christmas Time has arrived at Ladywell Nursery. The children have been very busy decorating the Christmas tree and making various Christmas crafts. We have been exploring the Christmas display and learning why we celebrate Christmas.

The Children have been playing Christmas bingo and matching games demonstrating good turn taking skills. We have been documenting our knowledge about Christmas through our Floor book using mark-makings while an adult scribed our thoughts and feelings. The children have enjoyed listening to various Christmas stories such as “Goodnight Santa”.

We enjoyed creating our Christmas crafts.

On Wednesday we all enjoyed our Christmas Lunch.

Wishing everyone a Happy Christmas from Ladywell Nursery.

“Leaves make a scrunch noise”

“Leaves change colour”

“Leaves would feel rough”

“We wear a woolly hat when it gets cold”

“Autumn is when the leaves fall down from the tree’s”

“Acorns look like sausage rolls”

“Pumpkins put faces on them”.

“The leaves feel rough”

We had so much fun rolling about in the leaves.

Halloween

We enjoyed scraping out the inside of the pumpkin and carving a scary face.

“It feels slimy”.

“It smells funny”

“It has seeds inside”
