Nursery Oak
Spring 1
This half term Nursery have been learning about animals. Our role-play area became a vet’s surgery and we enjoyed dressing up as vets and treating the poorly pets. We enjoyed reading many stories including the very hungry caterpillar and we’re going on a bear hunt. We had lots of fun making caterpillars, butterflies and bears to go along with these books. In maths we have been subitising and looking for what we can see within a number.
Autumn Term – 2nd half
This half term Nursery have been learning about celebrations and festivals around the world. We learnt about firework night, Diwali the festival of light, Hannukah and of course Christmas.
We took part in ‘World Nursery Rhyme week’ and sang Insy Winsy Spider, wind the bobbin up, sleeping bunnies, heads, shoulders, knees and toes and down in the jungle. We enjoyed taking part in activities based around these rhymes.
We have enjoyed reading lots of books including Where’s Spot, Dear Zoo, Mog and Meg and Elmer. In maths we have been learning numbers to five, exploring different ways to make and represent these numbers.
Autumn Term - 1st Half
This half term we have been exploring the changes that happen during Autumn. We read the book ‘leaf man’ and enjoyed joining in with the repeating phrases. We then made our own leaf man using natural materials. We have been singing our favourite songs and performing actions alongside them. We have used loose parts to create our own pictures and 3d models.
