Nursery

Welcome to our Nursery Class! The adults in our class are Stephen Ramdial, Delrose Lee Ryan and Hannah Jonathan.

See what we’ve been up to:

 This term half term our topic has been Adventures, near and far. The children began with an adventure in the kitchen with The Runaway pea and explored their likes and dislikes with food as well as what is healthy and unhealthy.

They enjoyed marking making their favourite fruit and vegetables and could hear, say and write the initial sounds. They also continued their phonic journeys and began to write the letter sounds and CVC words they have learned as neatly as they could in their new writing books!

This was followed by an adventure in space with the alien Beegu, where the children particularly enjoyed roleplay and making their own alien friends.

In the second half of term we set to the deep blue sea as the children were captivated by the swash buckling adventures of pirate dinosaurs in Captain Flinn and the Pirate Dinosaurs; the epic adventures at sea for the Snail and the Whale and learning about different sea creatures in The Rainbow Fish.

Many of our books surrounded an ongoing theme of friendship as well as adventure and have be perfect learning opportunities for sharing and working collaboratively.

In expressive arts the children explored a range of materials to make their interpretations of characters from the books we have learned about such as the Rainbow Fish and the Snail (in the Snail and the Whale).

In Maths we focused on enhancing our knowledge of number by ordering numerals from 0-10 and finding the missing number. The children began to demonstrate their mastering of number by matching a counted quantity to the correct numeral. We also developed our language for measure as we compared the different lengths and heights of objects.

In the second half of the Summer term we will be learning about communities from around the world and exploring the diverse cultures within our classroom and wider community.

 

Thank you for your continued support.

Megan, Hannah and Delrose.
