Our learning this week 17th April 2015

This week Ben and Betty have been teaching us the letter sound “t”. We read the story “The Tiger who came to Tea”.

We sequenced pictures from the story and also wrote a shopping list for Sophie to buy all the things that the Tiger had eaten!
Our Write Dance was called “Tickle Tree” which had lots of wiggly, jiggly movements in it…lots of fun!

We looked at ordering numbers and played a game on the interactive white board where we had to hang the t-shirts on the line in the correct order.

On welly Wednesday we looked at making collections of ten – ten sticks, ten stones, ten leaves, ten daisies, etc.

The Tiger from the story was a little bit muddled up and didn’t know what things we did at different times of the day, so the children needed to sort the pictures into hoops of things we do in the morning, things we do in daytime and things we do at night.

We talked about our teeth and what we needed to do to look after them and also what foods gave us happy teeth and which foods gave us sad teeth.

We also practiced taking turns playing a brush the tooth game.

In music we tapped different parts of our bodies in time to some of our favourite songs. We noticed that some songs made us tap slowly and other songs made us tap quickly.

We have enjoyed the outdoors this week and the children have got creative with the chalks outdoors, drawing rainbows, wiggly lines, faces, etc.

We played a game called traffic jam where we carefully moved around the hall being different types of transport – tractor, racing car, bicycle or motorbike. When Mrs. Amirat shouted “Traffic jam”, we all had to get ourselves in one big long line. We practised our listening skills and by the end of the session we were super speedy at getting into a traffic jam!

We have been practising singing some of our favourite Welsh songs this week, as well as counting all the way to 33 in Welsh because we have had so many children in Nursery this week – Daiwn!

We have had such a busy first week back in school. Don’t forget, named sunhats to wear outside and put sun cream on your children before coming to Nursery.

Have a good weekend.
