This week we've learning about birthdays. We read a story called 'The Night Before My Birthday'. We made birthday invitations talking about who we would invite and where we have the party. In the creative area we painted birthday cakes and made birthday hats using, coloured shapes, features and pom poms. In maths we looked at numbered cupcakes and tried to match the amount using candles. On the theme of cake, we also talked about healthy and unhealthy food, looking at pictures of food and separating them into the two piles.
This week was Anti bullying week. In small groups we talked about what makes a good friend and a bad friend. We looked at pictures of behaviour we think makes us happy and sad.

In nursery we have been learning about a story called 'We're going on a bear hunt'. In groups we went on our own bear hunt outside, looking for hidden bear cutouts which was great fun! The children have also been busy painting and drawing the main character from the story, the bear!! We created story maps, drawing out what we remember from the story. We also acted out the story in a music session. Remebering all the key phrases from the story!

We have finally got our full intake of Nursery children. During circle time we had the confidence to share our names to our new class with lots of our new friends. Our topic this week was 'My family'. We listened to a story about Mum and Dad and shared our own thoughts about our parents, we made paintings of our parents. We also made little paper houses with drawings of our family members. To end the week we shared family photographs and spoke about out family members to our class.
