We have been really busy in Nursery learning all about dinosaurs. One of our favourite books we read was called “Dear Dinosaur”. It’s about a boy called Max who visits the dinosaur museum, he decides to write a letter to his favourite dinosaur, T Rex. In the story it was T Rex's birthday and the nursery children decided to write a letter to him with a birthday gift that they thought he might like. We also spent time outside drawing dinosaur silhouettes, we had to really think about how we would draw around the dinosaur so we could still see the shadows.
The children in Nursery learnt all about VE day. The children learnt how some children (evacuees) had to move away from their families to keep them safe and we listened to an air raid siren and talked about what people would have to do when they heard it and how they might feel. We looked at photos of people celebrating the end of the war and even made our own flags to wave.
In Maths we have started to learn about 2D and 3D shapes. We have been learning the names of the shapes and also looking at the differences and similarities of the shapes. We have also spent time in the construction area building things with the 3D shapes and are now able to name each of these. Thank you to everyone who have put photos on Tapestry so we can see what you have been learning at home.
