Bumble Bee class - week beginning 31.11.15

This week in nursery the children will be learning The Nativity story and why Christmas time is a special time for people who are Christians.

We listened to the Nativity Story and talked about the characters and events which took place. 


We painted characters from the story for a classroom display. 

A king. They went to the stable.

Our finished display!


On Tuesday we began our class advent. Each day we will learn something special about Christmas and how it is celebrated around the world.


This week for our maths activities we will learning the names of 2d shapes and using simple maths vocabulary to describe them.
We listened to a shape song on YouTube and had to point to the matching shapes. 
A rectangle.

We made shapes from play dough.

A circle.

We were very good at completing the shape puzzles!

We enjoyed making shape pictures.

In the Writing Area we carefully traced 2d shapes.


We played a shape game on the carpet. We had to take a shape from the mystery hat and then match it to the right shape on the carpet. We named the shapes and used words to describe them.
A circle it's round.

A triangle. It has 3 sides. 

In the Outdoor Area we looked for shapes in the environment.
We saw lots of circles!





The wheels are a circle shape.

Charlie found a triangle shape.

Triangle!

Amelia found a square shape.

We enjoyed playing a shape matching game on the Topmarks early years website.

We completed art activities inspired by the artist Kadinsky - "he uses lots of circles"

Circle cutting and sticking. 

Our finished art work!
