Nursery thought about Remembrance Day by taking part in lots of activities eg. making collage poppies and using tweezers to add pom-poms to the spots on poppies to improve their fine manipulative skills! We improved our pencil control by tracing poppy patterns and chalking our own versions.
We had so much fun celebrating Bonfire Night! Nursery created fireworks in paint and linked our learning to making them in play-dough for Diwali too! Mr Selmes helped us to recognise different sounds from the environment such as crunchy Autumn leaves, a crackling fire and fireworks! He also encouraged us to move like fireworks in PE and finally we discussed how to keep safe at this time of year!
Nursery have really enjoyed taking part in different activities to celebrate Diwali! We showed Bertie Owl (our special friend in RE lessons) our Rangoli and Mehndi patterns. We also created fireworks in our play dough! Waht fun!
Welcome to a new year in Hawthorn Nursery Class! The children are settling really well and trying hard with their 'good sitting' and 'good listening' skills. We have lots of fantastic opportunities for the children to learn and develop their speaking and listening skills through various forms of indoor and outdoor play activities. Learning is definitely fun in Nursery!
