Nursery Newsletter 12.03.18

Dear Parent/Carer,


Last week the children really enjoyed celebrating 'World Book Day'.
Apart from wearing fabulous dressing up costumes the children spoke
about their favourite stories and characters. They drew some fantastic
pictures of this which you can see as you walk into Nursery.
We look forward to welcoming parents to our Maths Stay and Play session on
Thursday.
Well done to Ryan and Alex who have completed this half term's learning
challenge. You still have time to complete this, we would love to display
more of the children's wonderful work outside Nursery on the 'Learning
Challenge' board.


Art
This week the children will be looking at the story of 'The Hungry Caterpillar'
They have collage materials available to re-create their own versions of the
illustrations in the book.


Mathematics
This week we will continue our ten town programme and focus on learning how
to recognise and form '3 and 4'.


Physical
In their weekly PE lessons the children will be learning how to throw
and catch small soft balls.


Snack
The children will be be tasting a variety of fruit to create their own fruit cocktails.


Communication and Language
Encouraging children to use simple sentences correctly.
Encouraging children to hold a conversation and respond to comments.
We will focus on rhyming words for the next two weeks. Please encourage
your child to find rhyming words in stories and point them out.


Understanding of the World
In the home corner we will be giving the children opportunities to re-enact
experiences and talk about their home lives.
The children will be learning how seeds grow and growing their own cress seeds.


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.


Messages
A few weeks ago we had a report of threadworm in EYFS. To control the spread
of this it is important children regularly wash their hands well. We will continue to
make new playdough with the children every day and ensure equipment is thoroughly
sterilized after use to ensure this is not spread in Nursery.

Kind regards,
The Nursery Team
