The teachers cannot believe it is the end of this years Nursery!
It has been a roller coaster for all of us , however we have all stayed strong and been a great team. By team we mean the teachers at Holbrook, the children and of course the parents for supporting your children too throughout this unsettling time!
Everyone deserves a FANTASTIC YOU’RE THE BEST!

We have put together a video of the children’s journey in Nursery. We hope you enjoy looking at the memories you have made.

Nursery AM

Nursery PM

Looking back at all the memories you have made makes us so proud as Nursery teachers, you are all SUPERSTARS or should we say SUPERHEROES!

• How many things can you remember doing in Nursery?
• Which was your favourite activity?

Well Done for everything!

This is the final shape activity of the week and the final maths activity before we finish for the school holidays.

First listen to this shape song to help you remember the names of the shapes.

Here are some pictures which have been made up of 2D shapes. We would like you to colour in the pictures carefully, using the key at the side to help you to colour in each shape.

Choose a picture to colour in. You will need the correct coloured pencil crayons to colour the shapes in for each of the pictures.

I chose to colour in the house picture. I needed red, blue, yellow and green pencils for this picture.

We hope you enjoy this shape activity. Remember to talk about the shapes as you colour them in.

How many triangles can you see in your picture?

Where are the rectangles in your picture?

Point to the squares in your picture.

Can you find any circles in your picture?

Let’s warm our arms up with one of our favourite funky fingers, SUPERMAN!

Now we are all warmed up we are going to show off our best writing skills and make a superhero card saying thank you to someone that has helped you in Nursery. You can also make the card to someone that has helped you during home learning. you decided.

On the front of the card you can draw your favourite superhero, inside the card you need to have a try at writing the person’s name who you want to give the card to. Then write your name in your best hand writing.

Your teachers have made a card to… All OF NURSERY!

Saying thank you to all of the children for being fantastic this year.

This weeks story has been Marvellous Me, which links to our theme today thinking about how amazing you have been in Nursery this year.

Enjoy the story.

Think about the things you are good at and what makes you marvellous.

Throughout your time of doing home learning Miss Woodward has been busy making up dances for you to join in with. Today we thought it would be a good idea to recap them and just remind ourselves of a P.E skill you have learnt within your time at Nursery.

We hope you have enjoyed them as much as Miss Woodward has.

Let’s start with the very first dance she made up in her garden!

Now let’s join in with this one.

Join in as many times as you like!

Great joining in Nursery, well done.

The shape activity today is again linked to the story ‘Marvellous Me’.

First listen to this song about shapes.

Using 2D shapes of different sizes like these below, make a picture of yourself to show how marvellous you are.

Cut out the shapes, colour them in and stick them together to make a face, showing yourself as ‘Marvellous Me’.

Please send us pictures of your work to:

The children have enjoyed the maths activity today and matching the numeral to the quantity.

Funky Fingers

The children have made fantastic superhero pegs and they have been practising their pinchy pinchy fingers as they peg their superhero around the house.

Sunflowers

WOW, look how tall your sunflowers have got.

Lovely Wednesday Nursery thank you.

See you tomorrow!

Today’s activity is linked to this week’s story, ‘Marvelous Me’. It is a counting and number matching activity. How marvellous are you at holding things? How many objects can you fit onto the palm of your hand?

You will need a collection of objects of different sizes from around your home and garden such as stones, sticks, pompoms, buttons, milk carton tops, cotton wool balls, Duplo etc.

You will also need:

A tray or table to place the objects on

Number cards to 10

Choose one type of object and see how many of them you can fit into the palm of your hand.

Count the objects and then find the correct number to show how many of the objects you are holding.

I could hold four pine cones in my hand so I needed to find the number card with 4 on it.

Now repeat the activity with a different kind of object. I used the stones. How many can you fit into the palm of your hand?

Count the stones and then find the correct number to show how many of them you are holding.

I could hold two stones in my hand so I needed to find the number card with 2 on it.

Repeat the activity as above with more objects. Like this:

Remember to count the objects and read the numbers carefully.
