This week we are reading Pirate George's Number Crew by Shonette Bason and Elaine Wright. The book is a series of rhymes set to well known nursery rhyme tunes. Each rhyme is about a member of the crew from Winky One Eye to Timmy Ten Toes, all with a focus from 1 to 10.
Our main focus for this week will be on Mathematics which is part of our Nursery curriculum. We will be finding out what the children can do in this area through activities based on the story and the children's other interests. We will have lots of Numeracy equipment out in the Nursery and will focus on counting skills and saying number names in order. We will also be looking at shape, space and measures through lots of different activities. The shape jigsaws and sorting games will be available to play with and we will also go on a shape hunt around the school.
Ways to help at home this week
Look for shapes in your house. What shape is the clock? The TV? The doors? Can you spot some numbers on your way to Nursery?
Halloween Fun Day
Wednesday, 23rd October is our Halloween Fun Day in Nursery. We are inviting parents and carers to come into Nursery from either 9.00-10.00am or 2.00-3.00pm to join in the activities and help us raise some money for new furniture. There will be lots to do!
Don't forget to guess how many snakes are in the jar (50p) and buy some raffle tickets for our Halloween raffle (£1 a strip).
What's coming up next week?
The sign up sheets for Parent Meetings will be available from Monday next week for meetings the week after (week beginning 21st October).
