Our favourite number songs

Here in nursery we love singing, below are some of our favourite songs that you may want to sing at home, you could even teach your families the words and actions!

Count to ten with our friends

 

Five little monkeys jumping on the bed

Five little ducks

Ten fat sausages

Five little speckled frogs

The bunny hop song!

Throughout our Easter learning the children have loved learning a new action song, here is the link to our favourite bunny hop song in case you would like to give it a go at home, you could teach your family the actions too!

Observing growth

The nursery children have looked after their planted bulbs brilliantly, they have made sure they have the right amount of water, warmth and light with a little comfy soil bed to ensure their plants flourish. The children have loved the responsibility of caring for them and observing how much they have grown, they are developing fabulous gardening skills and cannot wait to see when their flowers bloom! As the children have now taken their plants home to care for any photos showing plant growth can be added to their Tapestry account, we would love to see them in nursery to share their success with their friends.

The Penguin Song

In nursery we have loved learning the words, singing and following the actions to the penguin song by the learning station.

Here is the song we have been using,  it would be super if you tried it at home, remember to sing the words and do the actions.

During our topic we will be sharing stories with a Winter focus, singing new songs, learning about animals living in cold conditions, exploring ice, Winter role-play and producing lots of art including light and dark paintings, collages and junk modelling igloos.

Please encourage your child to talk about what they have been learning in school. We will share our learning on the school website in the nursery news section and on Tapestry, where you can add your fabulous learning experiences from home too!

 

Christmas has arrived in nursery!

Over the last week in nursery we have all worked as a team to make our classroom festive. We have developed our scissor skills and colour recognition by making paper chains to hang around the classroom and all had great fun decorating our nursery Christmas tree!

People who help us in the wider community

In nursery we have been learning about all of the people who help us out of school, in the wider community. We have thought of many people including our family members, doctors, nurses, dentists, mechanics, public transport drivers, construction workers, police and many more. We then painted pictures of some of the wonderful people we had thought of.

Saying thank-you!

This week in nursery we have been thinking about the people who help us in school, we thought of lots of people including cleaners, caretakers, cooks and senior leaders. After writing down all of the wonderful people that help us we painted cards and made tissue paper flowers to say thank you.
