Nursery
Croeso i'r Feithrinfa
We have been settling into our Nursery and having lots of fun exploring the areas and new activities.
We had a baby come to visit us in Nursery. We asked lots of questions and found out how to take care of a baby.
We completed bridge maps to compare what we did as babies and what we do now.
We used collage materials to make our faces.
We measured ourselves against our friends. We said who was the tallest and who was the shortest. Then we used the bricks to measure how many bricks tall we were.
We have been practising making big circles with both of our hands. This will help us with our handwriting skills and co-ordination.
Class of 2018-2019
We had great fun celebrating St David's Day.
Class of 2017-2018
We have been learning Nursery Rhymes. Have a look at what we have been up to!
We investigated which material would be best for Humpty Dumpty to land on. We used eggs for this and found out he would crack on the harder materials.
We put on the red thinking hat to discuss how we thought Humpty Dumpty was feeling and how to make him feel better.
We made Get well soon cards for Humpty Dumpty, drawing something that we thought would cheer him up on the front and writing our names on the inside.
We chose our favourite Nursery Rhyme book and put our results onto a pictogram using the interactive whiteboard.
We love Dough Disco! It helps warm our fingers and muscles up ready for writing!
We played hide and seek with Humpty Dumpty. We asked each other "Ble Mae'r Humpty Dumpty?"
We love to do P.E, this week we have been working in partners rolling a ball back and forth, using hoops to make different body movements, we also did a lot of balancing and mirroring our partners body movements.
We used playdough to create our own Humpty Dumpty using different materials.
We sorted Doctor Foster's wellies into the correct order from 0-10
We investigated what material would be best for Doctor Foster to use as his umbrella. We found out the waterproof materials were best.
We used tweezers to see how many objects we could put into our bowls in 30 seconds, we then talked about what one had less, more and the same in them.
We went on a colour hunt to find different objects and say them in welsh.
We used sand timers to see how many physical things we can do in 1 minute.
We drew our favourite Nursery Rhyme characters and our name on a white board.
we rearranged the shapes so they were tessellating.
We looked at two welsh artists Chris Neale and keffin Williams, we had a look at what sort of paintings they created landscape and seascape. We decided to create our own making the background first using watery paints and our mouths with straws, blowing lots of bubbles. It was so much fun!
we then used pastels to create our own scenery on top this .
We splashed in the rain like Doctor Foster!
We did and experiment with all different 3D shapes to see which ones would slide and which ones would roll.
We know how to do a tree map!
We came back to Nursery to enjoy the snow.
St David's Day
We loved wearing our costumes and reading our books to our friends on WORLD BOOK DAY.
We enjoyed making our gardens just like from the Nursery rhyme 'Mary Mary' we used plasticine and natural materials for the mini-beasts to live in.
We went on a mini-beast hunt take a look at what we did and what we found.
We enjoyed planting seeds into flower pots. We talked about what plants need to grow. We can't wait for them to grow!
After planting cress seeds they grew so tall and we decided to make egg and cress sanwhiches, they were delicious!
Our next context for leaning is "We're all going on a summer holiday", take a look at what we have been doing in nursery.
We talked about what we would need to pack in a suitcase to go on our holiday and what clothing would be suitable for different types of weather. We then packed our suitcase.
We used tally charts to ask our friends how they travelled on their holidays, we added up the results and put them onto a pictograph.
We looked at lots of holiday brochures and talked about what we could see in them and looked at the different countries, we then created our own holiday brochuer or poster.
We chose our favourite vehicle that we like to travel in to our holiday, we described it and painted it using different paint tools.
Have a look and read at the activity we did here.
We love doing our enhanced activities.
We went on a school trip to Brecon Mountain Railway, have a look at the photos.
We looked out of the windows to see what we could spot, some of us even fell asleep on the coach on the way back!
We looked at a power-point about old and new trains and then we sorted them out into the correct hoop.
We loved doing our sports day races!
We showed our holiday homework posters to our friends and talked about them.
We thought about what we would need to pack in a suitcase for different types of holidays and then we packed our own.
We had an African day where we dressed up as an African Animal/Person. It was great fun.
We went on a visit to year 2 to show them what we have been up to on our African week.
We cooked cous cous and vegetables , we ate it for our snack. Yum yum!
We sorted food into healthy and unhealthy and then we tried some fruits and described what they tasted like.
We used face paints to paint our friends faces like African tribes do.
We went on a magic carpet journey and thought about something magical we could see and told our friends about it.
We went on a safari hunt on search for animals, we used talking tins to record how many we could spot. We gathered our results and put them onto a pictograph.
We had a visit from the air ambulance and got to have a look inside the helicopter.
Megan brought in some tadpoles/toads for us to look at and we talked about how they will grow. We also looked after some caterpillar's which we then saw go into their cocoons and turn into butterfly's, we released them and said goodbye.
We love Dough disco! It helps us warm our fingers up ready for writing.
We have great fun at Forest School!
We made a colourful African necklace using repeating patterns.
We looked at a map of the World and sorted animals into countries such as Africa and Wales.
