Nursery Newsletter 13.11.17

The children enjoyed discussing the fireworks and using chalk and coloured paint outside to create their own last week. They also created their own poppies and added them to the field of poppies outside the school grounds. This week our focus story is 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear' by Eric Carle. The children will have lots of opportunities to explore colour
.
Remember Thursday is the Stay and Play session which starts at 9.15am for Morning Nursery and 1.15pm for Afternoon Nursery. There will be a short talk about the importance of Communication and Language and then you will be able to stay and play with the children in the setting. Sessions will last for roughly and hour, if you wish to you may take the children home with you when the session finishes.

These are the skills we will be focusing on this week:

Mathematics
Supporting the children to recognise numbers in the environment.
On the maths table we have coloured teddies for the children to count and sort.

Physical
We are teaching the children to hold scissors correctly and snip paper.
In PE sessions they are learning running and chasing games to enable them to change speed and direction.

Snack
This week the children are following a recipe to bake cakes. The recipe uses balance scales to support the children to learn to measure for example the children have to balance the amount of flour against two eggs.

Communication and Language
Encouraging children to use simple sentences correctly.
Encouraging children to hold a conversation and respond to comments.
We will be sharing the story ‘Brown Bear, Brown Bear' and encouraging the children to re-tell this.


Understanding of the World Remembers and talks about significant events in their own experience.

Personal and Social Development
Ensuring children are able to co-operate with routines and some boundaries.
Modelling the correct behaviours in play, ensuring children use resources well and begin to share with other children.
