Happy New Year!
Welcome back to everyone in our Nursery class, All of the children have come back full of energy and ready to tackle new things in school. We have started this term with our topic on Numbers and Shapes.
The children are learning to sort, match, paint and name basic 2D shapes and of course we are continuing to practice our numbers. Each week we will be introducing new activities to reinforce this knowledge.
This is going to be another busy term with lots of exciting things coming up, e.g, Carnival, Chinese New Year, Story telling week to name but a few and I will let you know nearer to the time what we will be doing for these.
This term we will also be starting our Read Write Inc programme, the children will be learning our letter sounds and beginning to sound out new words. We have been working towards this with our Letters and Sounds activities and the children have been doing really well.
Round and round we go to make a circle
We made a caterpillar out of circles
We found circles in our environment
And a few squares
The playdough can be made into circles too!
We recognised some numbers on patio
And the children are also practising writing the letters of their names....what a busy week!
Next week we will be looking at squares, triangles and rectangles as well as cutting skills, pencil control and continuing with our phonics.
You may have noticed some changes in our patio area, we have more activities out there to encourage free flow play and continuous provision, the children are really enjoying the opportunity to explore each new area independently.
Important reminders
As the weather has turned cooler, particularly in the mornings could you please send in a jacket each day for your child.
Have a great weekend,
Miss Jackie
