Your house needs you!
Hello Everyone,
We hope you had a good weekend and enjoyed reuniting safely outdoors with family and friends.
Here are some new idea’s to share with the your child at home. Please continue to let us know how they get on through their Learning Journal. Enjoy!
The nursery ladies have been out walking and cycling and they have seen lots of new baby animals at Mill Farm and Lanthorne Pond. They have taken these photo’s to share with you.
Encourage your child to watch out for new animal life when outdoors and share your photo’s through Home Learning on your child’s Learning Journal. This activity encourages lots of discussion about animals, babies, families and new life as well as exercising outdoors and learning about technology. Give your child a camera or device to take photos and help them to upload them onto their Learning Journal’s.
You can extend this further by helping your child to search online for the names of animals e.g. Cygnet, Calf, Foal.
Can you name all the animals you find?
Do you know what a female cow, horse or swan is called?
Can you count how many babies the animals have had?
L.1. I am learning about where living things come from and about how they grow, develop and are nurtured.
Access these links to further extend your child’s learning with baby animals.
Involve your child in choosing fruit/vegetables to make a nutritious smoothie or milkshake or keep the animal theme going and make a fruit dolphin!
L.1. Together we enjoy handling, tasting, talking and learning about different foods, discovering ways in which eating and drinking may help us to grow and keep healthy.
The children enjoy baking and cooking at nursery and independently follow step by step instructions through picture and photo books.
Try this easy pictorial recipe to make salt dough decorations with your child, allowing their creativity to flourish when decorating them.
L.1. Inspired by a range of stimuli, I can express and communicate my ideas, thoughts and feelings through activities within art and design
Remember to have a look at http://blogs.glowscotland.org,uk/wl/snonursery for more learning at home ideas.
We look forward to seeing your photos and learning on your child’s Learning Journal’s.
