Woodland hunt for 'Brown Bear'

People who help us

In English we have continued our work on brown bear. Children have enjoyed listening to the story and searching for the animals using binoculars.

Turn taking and sharing....

Our new story in English is 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear .What do you see?' This week we have listened to the story, explored the different animals, had sensory trays, printed a bear face, completed a matching activity and coloured in the animals. We will continue our work on this book next week.

Music! Ducklings really enjoy making music, a definite favourite are the keyboards.

We made bears with rice cakes, dairy free chocolate spread and bananas. They tasted yummy!

In Maths we have had a focus on colour this week. We have explored colours using our senses, sorted colours and counted them. It has including lots of fun sensory trays, a multi-coloured A frame, visits to multi-sensory, painting with ice and printing with pears and bright colours.

We explored turn taking with a variety of sensory trays, toys, games and remote control cars

More 'Bear Hunt' exploration! We have used a large paw print roller to make the bear footprints and we went on our own bear hunt in the Woodlands area. Super work by everyone!
