22 Street Lane Nursery - March 2019 Newsletter

March Newsletter

Cygnets Throughout February we have been focusing on healthy eating. The children have been preparing their own healthy snacks including cutting up their own fruit and cheese. We have been discussing which foods are good for us such as fruits and vegetables, and foods we shouldn’t eat too much of, such as sugary snacks. As a home learning activity the children designed their own healthy eating plates and showed them to their friends at circle time. We must say, there were some fabulously creative ideas and the children were extremely proud of their work! We have particularly focused on numbers and shapes this past month, matching a correct number of objects to numerals as well as sorting shapes, and ordering them by size. We had lots of fun in the snow too and in conjunction with this, looked at the different animals that live in the Arctic, as well as building towers with ice blocks, and looking at our footprints on the ground. The Cygnets have also taken part in many group activities, as we encourage the children to work as a team, to help one another, and share resources. We have been completing jigsaws, playing with the parachute, singing songs using props, and building towers.
