EYFS Autumn Term PoL
A huge thank you to all those who attended our EYFS presentation of learning today and for your support in helping us raise a whopping £1115 to help build the new parent’s room at DRI children’s ward. We hope you enjoyed the event it as much as we did and feel equally as proud of our wonderful children. ❤️
Odd socks day in Nursery!
Today we are showing awareness of ‘anti bullying’ by wearing odd socks. We have also done the paper experiment where we said unkind things to a piece of paper. Every time a mean word was said I scrumpled the paper until it was finally in a ball.
We then apologised to the paper for our unkind words and with each ‘I’m sorry’ the paper was unfolded but the creases still remained. The paper was never the same as it was before.
This showed the children that we must always choose our words carefully and be kind. We can say sorry for our actions but they are not always forgotten and leave a lasting trace.
Poppy art and poetry in Nursery
The children created poppy art today for Remembrance Day using paint, sponges, cardboard, leaves and tissue paper. Together as a class, we then collaborated and produced our own metaphor poem. This is how it goes…
Poppies are…
Red as tomatoes and hot peppers.
Bright as the sun.
Important as the soldiers.
Special as our nursery.
Nursery fine motor development and writing
The children used play dough to roll, twist, poke and pinch to build up their muscles in their fingers ready for writing. The children then practised writing the grapheme ‘b’ linked to our phonics rhyme this week ‘BINGO’.
I wonder can you practise singing this rhyme at home? Say the phoneme ‘b’ and have a go at writing the grapheme? This could be in sand, glitter, on paper, with paint, crayons or chalk.
Nursery will remember… 11am on 11.11.24
Celebrating Diwali
Today has been full of colour and music in Nursery.
The children have celebrated Diwali by listening to the story Chapatti Moon, colouring Rangoli Patterns, making Diva lamps and dancing with scarves and bangles to Indian music. Such a wonderful day.
Playing in the Autumn leaves
The children have loved playing in the leaves in the nursery garden this week. They have been jumping in piles of leaves, making pictures and hedgehog houses.
Nursery Chocolate wands
The children have loved making and eating chocolate wands this afternoon. What a yummy treat!
