We are starting a new topic in Nursery this week... Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy.
The children will have the opportunity to hear all the different Hairy Maclary stories at carpet time and group time throughout the week. They will become more familiar with the characters and the rhyming pattern that flows in the stories... Hercules Morse as big as a horse, Bitzer Maloney all skinny and boney etc.
We will be creating our own versions of the dog characters this week using a variety of media - paint, colouring pencil, collage and TUX paint on the computer/iPads.
We will also be learning about what a vet surgery is and have the chance to reenact a vet scenario in our new vet surgery role play area. We will even be hosting our very own dog show in the garden later on in the week going over positional language with the children again. We hope the children are ready for a busy week!
