Cultural Arts Week Week beginning 26th February 2019 What can we learn about lives of children in another country? The Philippines • We read a special children’s book all about the Philippines. The book also tells about three children’s lives growing up in the Philippines. This is a non-fiction book. • We looked at and talked about lots of images (photographs and pictures) and also video clips of Philippine homes, families, wildlife, countryside (beach, coral reef, rice growing and tropical forests) and festivals. • The children explored the work of Rodel Tapaya a Filipino artist. We created some of our own pictures in a similar style. • We had crocodile stories and made a crocodile swamp in the sand pit outside. • Outside we also made junk model boats and investigated floating and sinking. • The children also had a go at weaving as another art form. • Dan, the school’s drumming teacher, came to Nursery to do a special drumming workshop with the children. We looked at the Ati-Atihan festival which has a lot of colourful and interesting street drumming as part of the parade. • We were visited by a specialist drumming teacher from Bristol. He did a workshop for Nursery and F2 children.
In class today we were talking about our school website and looking at photos of the fun we have been having in Nursery class. The children asked me to put up these photos that we took together at the end of the day. They wanted a photo of them all together on the website!

Learning and exploring outside February 2019.

The Life Bus came to talk to us about Healthy Lifestyles. The children met a puppet called Harold the Giraffe. The children helped Harold learn to brush his teeth and hair and wash his face. It was Harold’s first day at Nursery and he was a little bit worried, so the children thought of lots of fun things that you can do at Nursery to make him feel better. They came up with some very thoughtful ideas. Lastly the children learnt about why sleep, exercise and healthy food and drink is important to keep our bodies healthy.
Week starting 28th January. This week we have been reading traditional tales. We have also been practicing mark making and writing our names. The children have enjoyed doing lots of counting activities with Numercon pieces. We have been to the hall to practice moving in a variety of different ways and have been active outside. In group times we have made pet pictograms for our maths work. For phonics time we have done some listening activities (both outside and also inside with musical instruments).
