The children are still enjoying our theme ‘Under the Sea’, we have enjoyed singing the song ‘I have a little Turtle’ and learning the actions that go with it. Why don’t you ask if your child can sing it for you? We loved learning about Turtles, we found out that they like to live most of their life underwater but do need to pop up for air to help them breathe. We also found out that the turtles lay their eggs in the sand and when hatched the turtles have to scurry to the sea. We then enjoyed making our own turtle from a paper plate.
We have also enjoyed exploring and learning about Snails – we have enjoyed them inside the classroom holding then and exploring their different features.

We have also continued to enjoy exploring our theme ‘Under the Sea’, we listened to the story ‘Commotion in the Ocean’. We loved listening to all of the rhyming words and discussing all of the different creatures that live in the sea. We have also enjoyed looking at a variety of objects around the classroom and deciding if they will sink or float? We were surprised to notice that just because an object is big it does not mean it will sink!

This week we have been celebrating British Science week, the theme for this year is ‘Time’. We began by talking to the children about what time means to them and how do they tell the time. We talked about how time affects every part of our lives, we decided to learn a little more about growing seeds and watching how they grow over time. The children took some time to look at the seeds before we planted them and discussed what the seeds needed to help them grow. What a great time we had planting and now look forward to watching our seeds grow.
As it is Brain Awareness week, we have enjoyed learning all about the brain. We discussed where the brain is located, what we need a brain for and how we keep our brain healthy. We then had lots of fun making a brain headband to remind us of the fascinating facts we have learnt.
We have also started to think abut Spring and new life, the children were interested in animals and their young and particularly animals on a farm. We spent some time discussing the different animals and what they call their young for example cow and calf, sheep and lambs. We are hoping to have a visit from some lambs in a few weeks.

We are continuing to thoroughly enjoy our Forest school, this week we enjoyed a little bit of free time to explore outdoor area. The children quickly noticed how a lot of new flowers had started to grow and were particularly interested in the feel of the bark the trees and how it all felt different, the children were able to use some great language to describe how the tree bark felt.
We have also spent some time talking about Mother’s Day and the special women in our lives linked to ‘International Women’s day’. The children spent some time talking about why they love the special women in their life and why we celebrate Mother’s Day. We hope you all have a fabulous day on Sunday and spend some time relaxing!

We began the week by going to Forest school, we spent some time talking about the changes in our environment and how did we know it was nearly spring? The children enjoyed exploring the area around then to spot signs of spring, we saw Daffodils snowdrops and crocus. If you are out on a walk why don’t you see what other signs of spring you can see?
On Tuesday we were very excited to find a treasure map with some clues. After following the clues and finding all of the pieces we finally found a treasure box chest with a story book ‘Pirates are Coming’. The children loved listening to the story and then spent some time later in the week discussing what they knew about Pirates and also looking at and talking about their own treasure boxes.
This week we have also been learning all about ‘Dental Health’ we talked about our experiences of visiting the dentist and why it is important to look after our teeth. On Wednesday were lucky to have a visit from a local dental practice, they talked all about how to keep our teeth clean, gave us some facts about our teeth and what foods are good for our teeth and ones we should avoid or have a little at a time. We also took part in a colouring competition and four of our friends won prizes for their pictures.

On Monday, the children hunted for the 4 pieces of a jigsaw in the classroom that led to the clues of a favourite book by Julia Donaldson ‘The Gruffalo’. We then retold the story of the Gruffalo using the characters, using repetitive phrases and language from the book. What great storytellers we had!
The children have continued to retell the story of ‘The Gruffalo’ using the story tuff tray. The children have enjoyed our Gruffalo themed areas, making Gruffalo crumble, painting and making the characters from the Gruffalo. The children took part in the Gruffalo themed PE, we made sure we jumped with bent knees like the Gruffalo, moved quick like the mouse, high like the owl, quiet like the snake and far like the fox!

Continuing with our theme ‘Winter’, there was a particular interest in Penguins so we have enjoyed learning a little more about them. We also enjoyed the story ‘Blue Penguin’ and then the next day we found Blue Penguin had left our very own eggs to look after. The children had to build nests, practice balancing the eggs on their feet and waddle around like a Penguin. We also waddled like a penguin to lunch (which was incredibly funny) and took part in a penguin themed yoga session. The children also created some fabulous paintings and drawings of penguins.

As part of our theme ‘Winter’ theme the children have enjoyed a variety of different stories. We have talked about the types of clothing we may wear in the Winter and then how they are different to the clothes we wear in Summer. The children enjoyed sorting different the clothes and talking about why they would or would not wear them in the winter. After reading the story ‘Winter Sleep’ the children were inspired to make bird feeders to try and attract different birds into our outdoor area. The children enjoyed creating the bird feeders using pinecones, lard and bird seed, they are very excited to use binoculars and the bird checklist to see which birds we can spot. We particularly enjoyed singing along to ‘The Winter Hokey Pokey’ learning lots of new actions to help keep us warm.
