This week in maths we explored ‘what comes next’. We helped bunny work out what number comes next by using a dice and a number track. On Tuesday we played a game of missing number – the children had to work out which number was missing and find the missing number on their number fan. On Thursday we were given a number and had to work out which number came next to make a number line.

In RE this week we talked and thought about God’s Wonderful world. We remembered our RHE learning from autumn term and talked about the things God made during the 7 days of Creation. We listened to Louis Armstrong’s very lovely song ‘What a wonderful world’.

This week in maths we did some activities and used the words ‘more’ and ‘fewer’. We had our own teddy bears and had to give them cubes, one bear with more and one with fewer. We also played a game with our friends where we had to close our eyes and take bears from a bag, we then talked about who had more and who had fewer.

In RE we talked about the word ‘friend’ and made a list of how to be a good friend, the children came up with the following suggestions ‘share our toys’, ‘give our friends a cuddle if they are sad’ and ‘ask a friend to play’.

We also designed our own ‘teddy paperchain of friendship’.

We have had a very busy week in Nursery. On Tuesday when we arrived at school we were excited to see all the caterpillars had transformed into cocoons so we moved them very carefully into the net. We will have to wait for about 2 weeks before they emerge as butterflies and we cannot wait!

We were able to get outside this week to fly our kites which the children really enjoyed.

In RHE we thought about being safe and unsafe. We looked at places to play that were safe e.g. the park and places that are not safe e.g a busy road. We also thought about things that are safe and unsafe in our houses. We each had a picture and had to decide if it was a ‘safe’ or ‘unsafe’ object or place to play.

Reminders

For safety, please can you ensure grapes are cut in half lengthways.

Suncream needs to be applied before school and all children need a sun hut – we will be spending a lot of time outside.

During the summer term please could children bring in a raincoat/jacket each day just in case we have a shower.

Thank you so much for donating and buying cakes for our EYFS Cake sale, we are going to use the money to buy resources for our playground. If you are having a spring clean at home we would welcome any donations for our mud kitchen – baking trays, cake tins, sauce pans etc.

The caterpillars have grown over the course of the week and this morning when the children came in, they were excited to see that one caterpillar is now in full cocoon stage so we just need to wait for the others to do the same. Hopefully by the time we come back after the Bank Holiday we will have 5 cocoons and we can move them into the net.

In maths this week we have been looking at capacity and using the words such as ‘full’. ’empty’, ‘nearly full’ and ‘nearly empty’.

At the beginning of the week enjoyed playing outside in the sunshine.

On Wednesday in RE we continued to think about how Jesus sent his new friend, the Holy Spirit who is our friend who helps and guides us. We cannot see the wind but we can feel it, in the same way we cannot see the Holy spirit. We made our own flags to and talked about how the wind will lift the kite and will help it to fly. We will try and get outside next week to fly them when we have a windy day.
