Summer 1 Term

Week Commencing 17th April 2023

This week the children have been learning all about the life cycle of a frog. They loved learning all about the different stages, and we even watched some youtube vidoes to see real life tadpoles turn into frogs! It was amazing! Perhaps you can also explore the frog life cycle at home. We also welcomed some new children into our nursery, and as always the children were super at welcoming the new younger children. As we are now into Spring, the children explored what Alfie the bear learnt about spring from the book "When will it be Spring?". It was very funny, especially when he continued to wake his mum up through the different seasons. We did some beautiful water colour painting of the tulips that were growing in our nursery garden. We can't wait to put them on display. I wonder if you can spot Spring with your child as they walk to school?

We also made froggy life cycles on the playdough, and the children also loved designing their own frog on the make table.  We also have been drawing the different stages of the life cycle and will be using our monster phonics knowledge to label our drawing next week.  We also got a special delivery this week...our caterpillars have arrived in school and we can not wait for them to turn into a butterfly! ..I wonder if you can guess what we are learning next week?
