This week we're reading the story of Little Red Riding Hood. We will be talking about the rule Little Red Riding Hood broke - Don't talk to wolves! We will talk about "stranger danger" and about making sure our parents know where we are. In our key groups we will be retelling the story in the correct sequence, using story language and time words.
We have some plants to put into our Nursery yard to brighten it up a little for the summer time. We will be looking at the plants carefully and talking about the different parts of plants. We will be making jam tarts for Granny and tasting them.... just to make sure they taste nice!!
The children who are in Nursery on Friday will be going out to the garden/woodland area of the school grounds to explore. We will play some games and explore the area to see what we can find.
In addition to all of that, it is also Stay & Play week at Nursery. If you haven't already signed up to stay for an hour, there are still some spaces left. The sign up sheets are in the Nursery porch.
Ways to help at home this week
Do you have a different version of the story of Little Red Riding Hood? Read it together and discuss how it is different to the version we read in Nursery. In our class version the wolf eats Little Red Riding Hood and Granny but the woodcutter opens the wolf's tummy and they escape. Little Red Riding Hood fills the wolf's tummy with stones and sews him up again. He now rattles when we walks so he can't creep up on people anymore and is vegetarian at the end of the story!
What's coming up next week?
It's another "normal" week in Nursery! We will be looking at the story of the Frog Prince and looking at lifecycles.
