Here is the newsletter with all your information for this half term. We are learning about traditional tales this half term.
This week in nursery we have been reading the story of the Three Little Pigs. In the provision we have been enjoying building houses for the pigs in the construction area and re-enacting the story with the small world figures in the black tray. We could remember all the key phrases from the story, what little stars we are!
This week we have been developing our fine motor skills by exploring lots of interesting things to cut through. Some items are easy to cut through whilst others are quite difficult! We then have been using the bits that we have cut to make some beautiful creations over on the collage table.
We have listened to the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears in nursery this week. We have loved making our own porridge using a variety of pans and spoons. We have made sweet, salty and spicy porridge. We have shared the porridge we have made with our teachers and friends.
We have had some new home made fairytale characters join us in nursery this week! We have really enjoyed re-enacting lots of traditional fairytales together and making up some very interesting new ones!
This week we have been talking about the changes that we have been able to see outside. We found out that the leaves have changed colour and have started falling off the trees. We discovered that the weather has turned a little colder and we have needed warmer coats. We went for a walk outside in the nursery yard and found lots of lovely leaves. We even collected some and used them on our collage pictures.
We had a fantastic day today for our nursery spooky dress up day. We all came in our fantastic spooky costumes, and we even had a spooky disco in the hall.
On Wednesday 5th November, Watercliffe Meadow will be hosting a parent forum!
This week in nursery we have tried hard to follow instructions to do a finger painting picture of a tree. We have used lovely Autumn colours and taken care to use our fingers to make the leaves on the trees.
Watercliffe Meadow is currently accepting donations until 24th October for our Harvest Festival to support the local community.
This week we have been playing with the princess castle, carriages and characters along with the fairy boot and fairy characters. We have really enjoyed using our imagination in bringing the characters to life and creating our own live-action stories!
On Wednesday 22nd October, Nursery will be having a Halloween themed fancy dress day!
