January

We have had an extra busy month having moved into our new nursery.  Check out some of the activities that we have been doing:

We love our new outdoor space and have been outside playing nearly every single day since we moved schools.  We have been very imaginative in the way that we have played with the climbing logs, rolling logs, caterpillar, boardwalk and grassy mound.  
Even better....it snowed!  We discovered ice, snowballs, cold, melting, footprints, tracks and snow angels.
   Inside, we have been drawing and playing games on our new Interactive SMART board.  We have been learning new tricks every day and love using our photos on the board to sign ourselves in each day.  
We love our new purple sand and have been exploring pouring and filling, transferring, measuring  baking, sorting, hiding objects and many other games that we can play in it.  
Our big bricks our back and are more popular than ever now that we have a great big space for building it.  We have had a lot of 'fires' in the nursery this week requiring us to build fire engines to put them out!
We discovered that the new library is a lovely place to visit on very windy days when it is not safe to go outside.  The beanbags were nearly as big as us!  They were very comfy!
We celebrated Burns day with some pipe music, dancing, haggis and oatcakes.
We had a teeth-brushing session and were practicing our little gentle circles on the teddie's teeth.


We are participating in the Scottish Book Awards so have been reading the stories 
Jack and the Flumflum Tree
The Day Louis Got Eaten
Solomon Crocodile.
We have undertaken some activities relating to these stories to get to know them well.  We shall be voting on our favourite story next week for The Scottish Book Awards 2013.
