Nursery

Welcome to the Nursery Webpage!

Topic

Our enquiry question this term is 'Do we all like the same art and music?' We are focusing on Art and Music and will be learning about and experimenting with different forms of these. We will learn about a famous artist and a composer.

We will be reading lots of stories and non-fiction texts this term and our work will be based on these, for example :

'We're Going on a Bear Hunt' by Michael Rosen

'Peace at Last' by Jill Murphy

'Shh! We Have a Plan' by Chris Haughton

'Once Upon a Rhythm' by James Carter

'Am I Yours?' by Alex Latimer

'Elmer' by David McKee

'Beautiful Oops!' by Barney Saltzberg

'Music is in Everything' by Ziggy Marley

'If Only' by Neil Griffiths

And non-fiction books about art and music.

We are also looking forward to our trip to The Tropical Butterfly House!

English and Maths

This term we are playing lots of listening games, identifying the initial sounds in words and blending a range of words using oral blending.

We will also be doing lots of practical counting activities, extending and creating patterns and solving simple mathematical problems.

P.E. and Forest School

We have gymnastics on Fridays. Please send your child to school already dressed in their P.E. kit on this day.

The Nursery children take part in a Forest School session on Mondays. Please send a pair of wellies for your child, if they attend Nursery on a Monday afternoon. You may also want to send a puddle suit or waterproof trousers!
