Mark making

Nursery have had a fun week.

In P.E. we all enjoyed shaking our beanbags to the 'Beanbag Rock' song and finding different parts of our bodies to balance them on. We have been using our listening skills when moving around the hall and practising stopping when we hear the tambourine.

We have been using our mark making skills this week by drawing pictures of our families. We also looked carefully at ourselves to draw our self portraits.

We were lucky to have Nick Schon, the illustrator of the Biff and Chip books, to visit us in Nursery. Morning Nursery made up a story  about Kipper falling off a building, going down a water slide and then landing on a cat. Afternoon Nursery got Kipper to meet a family of dinosaurs and make friends with the baby one. It was a lot of fun.

The children all loved going on the climbing wall and in the new tunnel when it was finally opened at the end of the week. Many were challenging themselves and taking risks on the equipment.

Next week our rhyme of the week is 'Baby Bunting'. We will be reading 'The Scarecrow's Wedding.' to link in with Harvest.
