Spring 1 2020
Supertato by Sue Hendra is our new exciting Power of Reading text
Our Learning - Supertato (Please click the link to see our half termly newsletter)
Week 1 exploring the new text, learning about titles, character and making predictions...
Week 2 Book blurb, Supertato's catchphrase and creating characters for storytelling 🥔 🍎 🍐
Week 3 - Find the Evil Pea!
Where could he be? Let's look around whilst we learn our positional language.
Why not sing our new song to learn 'on, in, under, by'.
The hunt continues...
Nursery are unhappy with Evil Pea's antics.
First he trapped and wrapped the fruit, then he drew on the fruit and vegetables.
Their faces showed they weren't happy!

Well spotted Isabelle!
We looked all over the classroom and eventually found him!
Then he bounced away again! Will we ever catch him!

Setting traps!
Rebekah had a great idea...
"If he comes back in through the window, I will catch him in this basket. I'll put a cushion on top. He won't escape then!"

Autumn 1 - Week beginning 4.9.19 - Welcome to our new Nursery children! We are getting to know each other and learning what we can learn in our new environment. We are lucky to have four learning spaces in EYFS. The Busy Bee room, The Hive, The Workshop, and of course, the great outdoors!
Autumn 1 - Week beginning 9.9.19: Nursery are settling well and love their new and improved learning space. We have welcomed more new friends this week and are keen to show our new friends how to use our classroom.
Autumn 1 - Week beginning 16.9.19: Nursry have begun to explore their new topic and have been thinking about what makes them unique. We looked at our faces and drew what we could see! We then made some yummy biscuits to look like us!
This is Me!
Autumn 1 - Week beginning 23.9.19: Nursery have explored their body shapes using Tap-A-Shape. We learned that we have one head, one body, two arms, two hands, two legs and two feet. We even know that we have five digits on each hand and each foot! We remembered where to place them to build ourselves using the pieces. We took care to use the hammers and pins carefully.
Week beginning 30.9.19 - Homes and Families
Whole School D&T week.
Nursery and Reception worked on using tools (including our hands!) purposefully to make delicious food and sensational crafts!
