Ercall w/c 15th April

Our sound of the week is 'j' so we have been finding words beginning with this initial sound such as 'jelly, jam, jug and jellyfish'.

We created spring trees in our topic books this week as we have been learning about the change of season. The children painted their hand and forearm to create 'a tree' then used collage materials to decorate. Well done Ercall!

The children have been really interested in our new pets at Moreton Say....we have been to visit our new chickens most days.

In our topic books we have used paint to create dinosaur footprints. We used our maths skills to count the footprints then name the colours.

Last week we made 'dinosaur eggs' in nursery....the children have been excited, waiting for them to crack open. On Tuesday we helped to crack open the eggs using spoons. This was hard work but the children seemed to enjoy the challenge and have been looking after the baby dinosaurs ever since.

Our rhyme of the week is 'one, two, buckle my shoe', the children have engaged well with the rhyme and are beginning to recognise and clap syllables.

Best wishes, Mrs Butler and the Nursery team.
