The children have continued their bug hunting this week using the magnifying viewfinders. After an adult initiated bug hunting activity last week, these children were choosing to continue and extend their learning independently.  

Everyday is a nursery rhyme day in Nursery A but we are singing even more this week as it’s National Nursery Rhyme Week.  Here we are having fun singing ‘Row, row, row your boat’ with a partner.

Today we have looked at 2D shapes.  The children identified the shapes and then went into provision to find them.  We discussed not being able to pick up a 2D shape and that we would need to draw round these for them to be a true circle or triangle. 

Today we remembered the brave soldiers who fought in the wars.  The children watched a CBeebies animation that sees war as experienced by animals in a field.  The children have also loved making their own poppies using playdoh and buttons and pastels.  

Year 1-Nibbles 

In partners we have been talking about how the characters in Goldilocks and The Three Bears felt using the word ‘and.’ 

“Goldilocks is sad and shocked.”

”Daddy Bear is angry and upset.”

Year 1- Maths fact families 

We have been learning about fact families in maths this morning. We have used double sided counters and tens frames to help us work out our addition facts. In pairs we have recorded our answer on a whiteboard.
