Welcome to our 4th week of remote learning!

I am so pleased to see all the amazing learning going on at home.  Thank you parents for all your hard work in supporting, encouraging and guiding your child through their Nursery activities.  Please know that every little thing you are doing is of great benefit to your child.  You are doing a terrific job!

This week we will be thinking about the polar regions and in particular recognising different polar animals.  Do you know any polar animals?  You may even learn a new name or two this week!

Thank you and well done to every one of our Nursery families, for all your great work so far, keep it up!  I have added some slideshows of the photos sent to me over the last two weeks, for you to enjoy. 

This week we will be thinking about "Birds in Winter"  Do you know any birds names?  Do you know what birds look like?  What do they eat?  Where do they live?  In the winter birds may find it difficult to find their own food and I'm sure they will love eating the bird food you will make and put out for them. 

Have a look at what we were up to last week...

Puffy paint, pattern making, threading, baking, pairs game and

colouring in.

I am also delighted to see so many boys and girls having fun in the snow!

What did you enjoy doing last week?  Can you see your photo?  Can you see your friends? 

What have your friends been up to?

  Jacob and Rosie have been learning our poem "A Chubby Little Snowman"  

I am sure you will agree, they say their poems beautifully!

We love your actions Rosie.

You did a great job - Well Done!

A great loud, clear voice Jacob.

You are fantastic!

Two Little Dicky Birds

Can you do the actions? In Nursery we would change the names of the dicky birds,

why not say the rhyme using your name and Mum/Dad/brother/sister/Granny/Granda/etc

Teddy Numbers

click here to play the game

We are learning to count with accuracy and recognise the numerals 1-5.  Select game - Numbers up to 5  and practice your accurate counting to 5.  If you can do this move on to numbers up to 10 and numbers up to 15.

Robin's Winter Song

click here to hear the story

Enjoy this beautiful story about robin and his first winter.  Robin is learning all about the the changes that happen and he even makes new friends as he explores.

Goodbye for now boys and girls!  I hope you enjoy making your bird food and enjoy watching the birds coming to feed.  I wonder will a robin come to eat it? 

I look forward to seeing a photo of you with your bird food this week.

 

Keep up the great work!

Edwards Nursery Unit September 2020

Look at us!

Going out on the bikes, trikes, scooters and wheeled vehicles will develop our leg muscles and strengthen our bones.  We are improving our stamina, co-ordination and balance.  We are having lots of fun while we do this important work!

October/ November 2020

Our topic is Dear Zoo

Click here for the story

Can you join in, saying the words?

We have been counting to 5 in Nursery.  We enjoy singing counting songs and our new favourite is "Alice the Camel has 5 Humps"  You can practise counting at home too.

Click here for "Alice the Camel has 5 Humps"

Have you ever wondered why we do not focus on writing when your child embarks on their Nursery year? 

Look at the differences between a typical younger child's hand (left) and an older child's hand (right).  Their hands (and brains) are still developing and are not fully formed.  So what should they be doing to support this?  PLAY -playdough, building towers, cutting, gluing, playing outside, digging in sand, sensory play, threading, puzzles, throwing balls etc...  All of these things help develop fine motor skills, co-ordinating the small muscles in our hands and fingers with our eyes.

Have a look at us developing our fine motor skills...

We are so busy! There are so many Christmas activities to enjoy in Nursery.  
Nursery is the best place to be at this special time of year!

 

 

 

”Our First Nativity”

We have been learning all about the very first Christmas.  We have been reading the story and we have been acting it out.  

We performed our nativity for everyone online.  We worked really hard to learn our songs and lines.  I’m sure you will agree that we all look fabulous dressed up and everyone is very proud of us!
