We are exploring different environments from the one we live in. We have started to look at the features of a beach and the animals that live there. We have really enjoyed accessing our under the sea role play area. We have shells, sea creatures, seaweed and we even made our own boat with an anchor!

We used Numicon to investigate different ways of making 15p. We know that there are not coins for every value so we only used the 1 shape for 1p, the 2 shape for 2p, the 5 shape for 5p and the 10 shape for 10p. We found lots of different ways of making 15p and some children recorded their calculations in a number sentence.

Every morning we start the day with linked provision. Each day there is a different activity focusing on a skill we are developing. This week activities have included handwriting, reading and spelling tricky words, ordering numbers and writing.

We have really enjoyed watching our caterpillars transform into butterflies but today it was time to release them into the wild. It was a lovely sunny afternoon so we took the net down to the forest and let them out during our Woodland Learning session.

Athletics and pitching and fielding in PE
Date: 20th Apr 2021 @ 9:37pm
Thanks to the lovely weather we've been having recently, 2S have been able to enjoy both weekly PE sessions outside. This half-term, we are concentrating on pitching and fielding and athletics. As such, since Easter, we have been practising our catching and throwing skills as well as testing our stamina by doing lots of exercises and races for athletics.

We have learnt about the parts of a plant and what a seed needs to grow. We planted sunflower seeds. We can't wait to observe them grow and change!

The Very Busy Spider and Fruit and Vegetable Shop Role-Play
Date: 14th Apr 2021 @ 5:40pm
This week we have been listening to the story of The Very Busy Spider, talking about how we feel about spiders and finding out simple facts about them. We have explored spiders in our minibeast area and used tweezers to remove spiders from the web. We have worked together as a team to create an enormous spider web and used wool to carefully thread their own web onto a paper plate.
We would like to say a huge thank you for all your contributions to our Fruit and Vegetable shop, it is looking fantastic. Our children have been using their senses to explore the different produce, develop their mathematical language and use their imagination to play different roles.

The children have decided to change our role play area into a campsite. They wrote a list of the resources they would need. They created some of their own props including a fire and marshmallows to toast.

The children really enjoyed using natural resources to make a bug hotel in the forest. They listened to instructions and worked as a team.

There are always lots of children at the craft table in RN! They are so creative and enjoy sharing these experiences with their friends. Many children often like to make cards for their family and friends and use different resources to make some brilliant creations!

Designing and making vegetable kebabs
Date: 12th Apr 2021 @ 8:22pm
For our DT topic, we spent two days researching vegetables and designing our own vegetable kebabs. We talked about food hygiene and how we can keep ourselves and others safe whilst preparing food.
With Mrs Evans, we learnt how to chop, peel and dice salad vegetables and arrange them to look appetising as we then ate them for our lunch. We also got to make our own vegetable kebabs and, as a special treat, Mrs Evans had kindly organised for us to make fruit kebabs too! We got to eat those straight away and enjoy them with chocolate sauce and marshmallows!

Our Nursery children had a wonderful day celebrating World Poetry Day. We had a visit from a giant dinosaur in the morning and Mrs Kinnear came to recite 'The Owl and The Pussycat' in the afternoon. We shared stories and rhymes and each child told us who their character was.
Thank you for your continued support, the children all looked fantastic in their costumes.
