Dear parents/carers,

We have had a busy week in Nursery. The children have been enjoying choosing their learning with their friends and there is still lots of excitement as they look for the minibeasts in the garden. We would love to invite you to our Nursery end of year celebration on Wednesday 17th July 2024 at 11am for the morning (AM) children and 2pm for the afternoon (pm) children if your child is full time you can attend either 11am or 2pm. We hope you can join us at our little celebration of your children’s wonderful year in Nursery.

Religious Education

We will now be continuing our new topic ‘Our World’. The children will be thinking about our wonderful world that God has given us. We will be learning about how we can look after and take care of the world around us. We will be thinking about how we share the world with our family and friends and how we can take care of our beautiful world.

 

Phonic

Our initial sound will be ‘ng’. The children will be learning to say the sound and looking at objects and pictures that end with the sound ‘ng’ e.g. king, ring, wing. We will be playing ‘what’s in the box?’ to support this.  

Home Learning:

Have a look at home or when you are out and about to see if you can find things that end with ‘ng’. Maybe you can play ‘I spy with my little eye, something ending with ‘ng’. ‘

Communication, Language and Literacy

We will be continuing to read books about minibeasts. We will also be reading ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar and some information books about Minibeasts. We will also be keeping an eye out for any minibeasts we see in the garden.

Home Learning:

This is also a link to the story of ‘Very Hungry Caterpillar.’ https://youtu.be/75NQK-Sm1YY?si=48kupSY0Jws4aKah

 

 

Maths

 

Next week children will be developing their subitising skills by playing games using a dice. They will roll the dice and then carry out that number of actions e.g:1

1 clap, 2 jumps. 

They will be exploring weight through practical activities. We will also continue to explore numbers 1,2,3,4 and 5 and we will be taking one away to see how many are left. in our learning and play activities.

Home learning:

Practise counting objects up to % and take one away. How many are left?

Reminders: Please send a school sunhat on sunny days. Thank you.
