Disco dancing in Nursery!

The children had an awesome time this afternoon dancing to their favourite tunes and eating hot dogs. Ghostbusters and Micheal Buble’s ‘Spiderman’ were a real hit! I think the children will all sleep well tonight!

BEAUTIFUL phonics in Nursery

This week we have been working really hard in phonics revisiting and revising the letter sounds ‘a’ and ‘t’. The children have come on leaps and bounds with their letter formation and I needed to share their awesome progress with you… Some children have even started putting the sounds together to write VC and CVC words such as ‘at’, ‘cat’, ‘pat’, ‘sat’. Wonderful and beautiful work Nursery – I’m so proud of you!

Planting and writing in Nursery

The children have been really busy this afternoon planting beetroot and tomato plants. We talked about what a plant needs to help them grow (water, nutrients from the soil and sunshine). We talked about how we need to be gentle with the plant so we don’t damage it. The children then carefully watered the plants. Niamh and Yanis then wrote labels for the planters saying ‘beetroot’ and ‘tomatoes’.

What beautiful work Nursery Crew! I can’t wait to make a nursery summer salad with our own ingredients!

Healthy eating

In community crew today we spoke about the importance of healthy eating and drinking. Followed by snack time where we ate oranges and raisins.

This term we have been learning British Sign Language during snack time. The children have enjoyed this and are fantastic. Above are the signs for milk, apple and banana. I wonder if the children could, show you these signs at home?
