food

Hello Nursery parents and friends!

We started off this week with a re cap of "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" We are getting very good at recognizing the different fruit and counting them. We are starting to talk about our own food preferences and some of the class are able to tell me 'I like ..."  and "I don't like ..."  and everyone can answer when I ask if they like something...

   We played a game with Namnoon's wind-up caterpillar to see if we could guess which kind of food he wanted to eat...

And we are beginning to make some simple class graphs to show foods we like...

 Egg carton caterpillars were a big hit!

The class have enjoyed the responsibility of watering our pineapple top and orange seeds in the hope that they will grow.

  We found lots of insects hiding amongst the foliage in our sensory tray and had fun using the tongs to pick them all out.

 And used the plants and flowers to create lots of different food for all the creepy crawlies!

On Wednesday the whole school made rockets for "Whooshing Wednesday!" and we watched some footage of a real life space launch and played some counting games 

 Nursery love to make pretend food and set up picnics and tea parties for each other. It's great co-ooperative play where they get to practise their manners and give little fingers a work out!

Here are some of the other fun things we've done this week...

colour mixing with water colour paints

Floating and sinking in the water tray

Learning new ways to share and play outside

 Making shopping lists and working on our scissor skills...

And then going shopping!

Counting our friends is always fun!

Keeping fit with Mr John

And of  course it was a very special day for two of our lovelies...Freya and Mungkorn celebrated their third birthdays with delicious cake for all their friends!

Finally, can I please remind parents that we start our school day at 8.00 am with circle time. This is a very important part of the daily routine when we greet each other and introduce new vocabulary and the activities we will be doing for the rest of the day. We also usually have story time and songs, followed by specialist activities like music and PE. Please try to get your child here before 8.00 am so we can start the day on time and they don't miss any important events! 
Thanks very much for your understanding :)
