Caterpillars

We have had a lovely week in Nursery. The children were very pleased to see that the caterpillars have been growing and eating lots over the weekend. We looked really carefully at the caterpillars and drew a picture of what they look like now and some of us attempted some writing about them. As a class we have continued writing our caterpillar diary. We noticed they were bigger, some were spiky and some had crawled to the top of the pot.

We read 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' by Eric Carle last week and this week we re-told the story and made up some new objects for the caterpillar to eat. Lots of children thought about their favourite food and the caterpillar ate spaghetti, pizza and sweets.

We have been practising for Sports Day next week. The children have been trying really hard to balance the bean-bags on their heads and run in and out of the cones. The children worked really well as a team. Sports Day is on Friday 23rd June from 9.10 for the morning and afternoon children.

Next week in phonics we will be continuing to practise all of the sounds we have learnt this year. We will also be rhyming and splitting words up into individual sounds and having a go at putting them back together.

We will be making some jewellery for our fashion show from recycled materials. Please send in some small pieces of recycled objects for our junk modelling.
