We enjoyed sharing our story What the Ladybird Heard at the Seaside, there were lots of conversations in Nursery about the differences between the seaside and the countryside.
“There is sand at the seaside”
“I can see fields in the countryside”
” That’s the sea or the ocean”
The children enjoyed developing their cutting skills this week, snipping paper in the creative area and making long snakes to snip in the dough. We talked about using scissors carefully.
Outside the children were very busy using their imagination and creativity, gathering all the natural resources they needed to create their own dinosaur worlds.
Finding the ingredients they needed for potions and stirring them carefully.
Creating amazing tracks using ramps, crates, tyres and stands. What great team work!
More tracks were devised using shapes with the children balancing carefully along.

During maths group times this week, we’re learning about positional language.
Help at home: Try to use positional language in your day to day conversations and during play. For example -Can you put your teddy underneath the box? The car is behind the garage. The monkey is on top of the tree. Put your shoes next to the cupboard. As you look at illustrations in a story, ask questions such as ‘Where is the cat hiding?’ or ‘What can you see in front of the fence?’
Reminders
Please ensure that your child has a complete change of clothes at Nursery every day ( including socks)
