Dear parents and carers,
RE: Nursery Curriculum – Summer 1, 2022
Welcome to Summer Term at Nursery!
Welcome back! The children have all returned relaxed and ready to enjoy their last term at Nursery. We are very excited that Summer is upon us and we have some exciting topics to cover!
We would also like to welcome our new staff and children joining us in Scarlet Class.
| Our topics this half- term are: Minibeasts (2 weeks) Eric Carle (3 weeks) Queen’s Platinum Jubilee (1 week) |
| Our Nursery Rhymes/Songs are: Little Miss Muffet Pat-a-cake Little Bo Peep Row, Row, Row your boat Dingle, Dangle, Scarecrow The wheels on the bus |
| Our Numbers Rhymes are: Mary at the cottage door One Potato, two Potato Round and round the garden Alice the Camel I have 10 little fingers The ant go marching |
Rhyme Time and Phonics
We will be continuing with our daily Nursery and Number Rhyme time as well as introducing all children to Phase 1 Phonics. We would encourage all parents to access the PhonicsPlay and introduce their child to the Phase 1 games. To access the website – username: kelvin and password: grove.
Library
The children at Nursery are all developing a real love of books and listening to stories. We shortly will be sending home a weekly book for you to read with your child – please note that this is not a reading book (these will be sent out after half term). This will be a book your child has chosen and wants to share with their family. Books will be changed on Thursday and Friday each week, so please ensure that their book is in their book bag so that we can change it. We appreciate the time you spend reading and sharing their library books with them at home. Thank you!
Nursery Sessions
We would like to remind parents how important it is that your child is here for the start of the session every day. Morning session begins at 8.45am and the afternoon at 12.30pm.
Donations
We are looking at extending our Mud Kitchen and Play Gardening Area – we are therefore looking for donations of old pots, pans, kitchen utencils, artifical plants and flowers. Thank you in advance!
Thank you for your continued support!
