Welcome to this week’s blog post. This week in Class 1 the children had the opportunity to create a wormery, this followed on from us finding worms in the garden.  The children can add more worms and food to the wormy.  This week we have been exploring light on the light box, the children have used coloured blocks and cups to observe the changes.  There has been interest in the play till, the children created money and resources were provided for the children to make a shop.   Next week the children will be introduced to Makaton signs, they will be shown a new sign every week to help support communication and language.  The first sign will be sit/sitting,  The children will be shown the action and the word at the same time.  The sign will be added to Class 1's door for you to try with your children at home.  If you have any questions, please speak to Aimee. This week in Class 2 we have been trying out our new wooden writing bo...

Welcome to this weeks blog post.  This week in Class 1 the children have been taking their own pictures with a real camera.  They have made marks with paint using a squirty bottle and created a fire engine from the blocks.  The children have made their own playdough and explored shaving foam with ice. This week in Class 2 we made dinosaurs out of junk modelling.  We went to a very wet forest school and Tuesday and we were so excited to find a letter and treasure from the pirates, we left them one in return!  The children also helped to make the bug hotel, thank you for all the items you brought in for this.  We made gingerbread men and some of the children were able to decorate them.  The children have shown a keen interest in the bear hunt story and wrote to the bear, today the bear sent them a parcel and asked the children to make a cave so they did!  Next week we will be making soup.  We are looking for lots of real items for our role pl...

Hello and welcome to this week’s blog post.   This week we have added 20 eggs to our incubator and we now need to wait 21 sleeps (approximately) for them to hatch! Class 2 have started planting, if you can donate any seeds or plants please take an item from the wish list (on Class 1’s garden fence).   We also have a new water table and the children have been exploring this.   Some of the children wanted to find out more about nocturnal animals and used the iPad.   We also found ladybirds in the garden and added them to the bug hotel. In Class 1 the children have been role playing as fire fighters, they used spray bottles filled with water to put out the fire. They have also measured how tall the sweet peas have grown. Tomorrow the staff team will be attending Helicopter Stories training with Trisha Lee from make believe arts.   Caroline has already attended training with Trisha and the children in Class 2 enjoy making up their own stories to ...
