Another busy week in Foundation stage!
Both Nursery and Reception enjoyed a trip to the Garden Centre on Tuesday - which also included a trip on the bus which the children seemed to think was very exciting! We had a great time looking at all the plants and vegetables, thinking about how we grow them and what we have to do to make sure they grow well. We enjoyed trying to name the more unusual ones whilst some of the children tried to work out what the various garden tools were used for.
Thank you very much to the parent helpers who made it possible.
Back in class we are watching our caterpillars (the real ones!) grow and talking about how they might change.
If any children have been growing things at home we would love to see pictures or some writing about how that's going!
In maths the Butterflies are learning how we use number lines or hundred squares to count on when adding - Our friendly alien, Bob appreciated their help in helping him count the sweets in his sweet jar which he was finding tricky..!
We have also been looking at CAPITAL LETTERS and singing the alphabet this week to help us learn our letter names. Why not try at home with the grown ups to spell out your own and your family's names?
** Apologies for the lack of photos in this post - They will hopefully be added next week! **
