This week in Maths we are learning about position words. Here is a song for today with some position words for you to learn.

Next watch this video and see if you can find where the objects are.

Now it is your turn to take part in an activity. Find a soft toy or teddy and ask a grown up to help you think of places to put it. You will need to ask your grown up:

Where shall I put the teddy?

Your grown up will give you an instruction like this….

Put the teddy….. on, in, under, over, next to, inside, through, past, behind, or around a place and you will need to follow the instruction.

Like this:

Good luck with listening to the positional language and following the instructions.

What a lovely first week back, we have had some fabulous work sent in from the children. Give yourselves a fantastic you’re the best!

Story Time

Today the children enjoyed the squash and a squeeze story, the activity around the story was to answer some questions. The children have really shown a good understanding of the story. Well Done!

Funky Fingers Fun

WOW what messy but fun work! The children have been exploring with different types of resources to create a picture of a sheep, they have also been practising their name in the chosen resource . We love this activity and we definitely love your sheep, good job!

We made our own farms

The children have been using their imagination today as they have created their own farms. They have been doing some lovely talking about what they want to have on their own amazing farm. These are super duper Nursery. Well Done!

Number Time

The number activity today was to build their own fence for their farm, but the challenge was to put the numbers on their fence in order. They children have shown so much enthusiasm in this activity and have spent so much time to make them bright and colourful! Give yourselves a heeehaaaa!

More Sunflower Pictures, they look beautiful!

Our nursery boys and girls are making the teachers so proud ! You are shining each day with your work, you are fabulous.

Have a lovely weekend and we will see you on Monday.

Stay safe!

Today’s activity is a number ordering one. The idea is to build a fence for the farmer’s field by putting the fence posts in order of number from 1 to 10.

You will need:

10 lollipop sticks (or 10 strips of paper cut into lollipop stick shapes ) for fence posts

a fence posts sheet

crayons

pencil

pen

First number the lollipop sticks (or strips of paper cut into lollipop stick shapes) from 1 to 10, then lie them on a table.

Like this:

Then you will need a fence posts sheet for your lollipop sticks to be matched onto. This is to help you learn to recognise numbers 1 to 10 in order.

Like this:

Then you can read the numbers on the fence posts and match the correct lollipop sticks to them.

Like this:

Once you have put all of the lollipop sticks in the correct places from 1 to 10 then the fence is complete. You can then draw some animals in the field and the fence will keep them safe.

Think about these number questions as you build your fence.

Which number comes before three?

Which number comes after six?

Which number comes between 7 and 9?

Have fun building your fence and send us pictures of your learning to:

Today there was some brilliant activities on the blog for the children to challenge themselves, we have been so pleased with your work today! You all are superstars.

I Spy With My Little Eye

Today the children have been listening to the initial sounds of the animals. This game was a little tricky but hearing from the parents it sounds like the children have all tried so hard. What clever boys and girls you are!

We Made A Cow

For our talk a lot activity today the children have been busy making a cow out of paper. You have all shown a lot of concentration and done some brilliant talking about your cow, we love them well done!

Funky Fingers

Today the children enjoyed seeing Mrs Simonds on the video and watching her practise her pinchy pinchy fingers. The children were very creative as they have chosen different types of foods to practise their pinchy pinchy fingers so they have the best pencil grip. Good Job Nursery!

How Many Animals In The Field

In number today the children have been working on their more than skills, they have been looking at the numerals and working out what is more than that numeral. They used cut out animals, objects they like to play with and other objects to count. You are all fantastic!

The Sunflowers Are Still Growing

we can really see that the children are enjoying the farm topic this week , as are all the teachers. They are really making us smile with their brilliant work.

Boys and Girls give yourselves a Hip Hip Hooray!

See you tomorrow
