In Nursery we have lots of new starters, so we have all been settling in to Nursery and learning the Nursery routines. Our topic this half term is all about ourselves and our families. We had a week were we focused on ‘Being me in my world’- and discussed lots about what makes us special and thinks we like. We decided on a set of class ‘rules’ or promises that we have made to be part of our Class Community;

  • Use kind hands and feet.
  • Look after Nursery things.
  • Sit smartly on the carpet.
  • We help each other.
  • We always try out best.

 

Stories are so important to us in Nursery. We have started our Power of Reading text ‘Brave Bear’- so far the children have explored their associations with things that are ‘hot’- like “fire”, “the sun” and “volcanoes”. We have discussed how the bears can cool down, like in a “swimming pool”, “the beach” or “in water”. We had lots of fun role playing being Baby Bear and Daddy bears trip to the river.

We have also looked at how we have grown and changed. We brought in photos of ourselves as babies and have explained lots of ways we have changed.
