It\u2019s been a fun, fast and fantastic week at St Nicholas nursery with lots of quality learning taking place.\u00a0 The children have all settled back in amazingly well and our new little children are making the most of their nursery experience.\u00a0 Everyone is doing great at establishing and following nursery routines.\u00a0 Following on from last week the children have enjoyed continuing with the lots of chat about Goldilocks and the Three Bears.\u00a0 In order to extend the children\u2019s learning further we have had lots of interesting discussion about bears, which has been lots of fun and most enjoyable.\u00a0 Following on from some group discussion the children were eager to make their own little bears.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They loved taking part in a little transient art activity which involved using various art and craft materials to make a bears face.\u00a0 The children found this activity very enjoyable which involved developing concentration as well as expressing their creativity.\u00a0 The children have also engaged well with a little literacy activity which involved using the letter pebbles to make the word \u2018bear\u2019.\u00a0 It\u2019s been fantastic to see the children match and become familiar with the letter sounds.\u00a0 The children have also enjoyed listening to a wide range of Bear stories, they have listened well and have loved sharing their thoughts and feelings, which has been lovely to hear.\u00a0 As a little extension of this we decided it would be a great idea to sample some of the snacks that were in the stories we listened to.\u00a0 I think it\u2019s fair to say this went down a treat.\u00a0 The children loved sampling porridge with various toppings as well as pancakes and honey.\u00a0 Some of the children have even used large bricks to build a house and the bear\u2019s beds.\u00a0 They have been comparing sizes and have used a good range of mathematical language to describe their work.\u00a0 They have also enjoyed drawing pictures of bears which are displayed in our art gallery alongside there wonderful writing.\u00a0 It has been fantastic to see this topic develop and the children extend their own learning.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The children have also had the opportunity to celebrate Burns Day, we have all participated in Scottish Highland dancing, sampled Scottish food such as Haggis, neeps and tatties, homemade Scotch broth as well as oatcakes and cheese.\u00a0 The children have embraced all things Scottish and it has been great to see them engage with lots of Scottish activities in order to learn about their Scottish culture.\u00a0 It has certainly been a jam packed week of fun and lots and quality learning and interactions.\u00a0 Our children have all been fabulous, they are all super little learners.\u00a0 Great work everyone and very well done.<\/p>\n
