Nursery focus: week ending 24.11.17




This week in Nursery we enjoyed everything 'Paw Patrol.'
The children all know the characters and watch this on the television, so we taught about dogs  and how to care for them; we looked at being a rescuer and the best way to save a dog stuck up the tree. Here, the children were taught how to use a winch and a rope to bring the dog safely down.
We also studied different ramps and investigated forces, exploring which cars travelled fastest down a ramp. The children discovered that the 'higher it is, the faster it goes.'

We also read the story 'Hairy Maclary' and looked at the different breeds of dogs. The children chose their favourite and gave reasons as why they liked that breed.

In our creative area, the children explored different colours and made pictures of Marshall and Chase.
