Summer one

Week one and two

Minibeasts (Caterpillars)

We welcomed the children back into Pre Nursery after their Easter holidays. Some of our children who are now 3, transitioned into Fledglings. Our Fledglings will do their own special learning each day, alongside the children who are 2.

We received a special delivery of 5 baby caterpillars. So we had lots of learning experiences based on this, we made our own caterpillars out of play dough, used our finger muscles to explore and make our own caterpillars out of spaghetti, we read the "Very hungry caterpillar" and also the "Munching crunching caterpillar" In our investigating tray we had soil, leaves and made caterpillars from pipe cleaners, we also went bug hunting outside with our magnifying glasses to see what we could see.

We fed a giant caterpillar the various foods from the story in the home corner.

In our Maths area, we made a patterned caterpillar of red, green, red, green, and we counted how many body parts we had given him.

Our Gospel value for this term is Honesty and forgiveness, so each week we will choose someone to wear our Golden sweatshirt.
