Hickory Dickory Dock & Mr. Wolf's Week
This week in Nursery our nursery rhyme is Hickory Dickory Dock and our story is called "Mr. Wolf's Week" by Colin Hawkins. The story is about Mr. Wolf and the activities he does each day. We will be talking about time this week, including days of the week, months of the year and the seasons.
We will be making a clock from a paper plate to help us when we sing the nursery rhyme. We will also be controlling our pencils to help the mouse to catch the cheese. As a group, we will make a big story map to show Mr. Wolf's week and we will be sequencing our Nursery day using photographs. In the outdoor area we will play lots of ring games, such as "Here we go Round the Mulberry Bush".
Clare will be in on Tuesday to tell us another story.
Ways to help at home this week
Talk about the days of the week and say them together. Talk about the things you do each day.
Look at the clocks and watches in your house. Do you have any unusual ones?
What's coming up next week?

Billy's Bucket/Jack & Jill
This week our nursery rhyme is Jack & Jill. We are reading a story called "Billy's Bucket" by Kes Gray and Garry Parsons. The story is about a little boy who really wants a bucket for his birthday. He warns his parents to never, ever, ever use his bucket, but they don't listen...with disastrous consequences for their car! There are lots of buckets around the Nursery this week. See how many you can spot.
We will be finding out where water comes from and what it is used for as well as investigating ice and water. We will also be making some special watery pictures with powder paint.
In Magic Maths we will be doing lots of counting and filling buckets to see how many objects they can hold.
Clare will be in on Tuesday morning at 10.30 to tell us another story too!
Ways to help at home this week
Experiment with water and containers in the bath. Fill a larger container using a smaller one. How many will it take to fill the larger container?
Point out each time you use water during the day, e.g. to drink, to wash, to cook, etc.
