Ducklings
Welcome to Ducklings Class
Curriculum Newsletters 2024-2025
The Wheels on the Bus! We did so many amazing activities for this nursery rhyme and the engagement was amazing. We had a tray of all things round, items that open and shut and a horn. We also did role play with the babies, washed the buses and used a story sequencer sound board to order the song. Then we did some amazing art work using wipers and cars. The children made their own buses with megablocks.
1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive.... Ducklings' really liked this sensory tray linked to the number rhyme. We also made our own fish and completed a matching activity.
Our first Ducklings birthday. This little man turned 5 and we had a party and sang Happy Birthday to him to.
In Music we focused on the nursery rhymes The Grand Old Duke of York and Row Row Row Your Boat. We used sound buttons, drums with pom poms on, instruments for the animals and cereal. They all had excellent engagement.
Humpty Dumpty.... We built a wall with bricks and weetabix. We also made a large scale wall using sponges and brown paint.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.... We had a fabulous time exploring the nursery rhyme. We had a sensory tray with bells, made stars with playdough and did a glitter star picture.
In PE this week we concentrated on balance. They worked really hard to complete the circuit.
5 bears Math's work. Ducklings have worked super hard.... from finding hidden bears in cereal, to building a wall for them to sit on and matching numerals and quantities. Super work!
Look at this super work putting the alphabet in the correct order
Collecting leaves for a printing activity
These two little men had the most amazing time in the ball pool in soft play! Lots of giggles
Focusing on the snowstorm. Ducklings particularly liked saving the bears from the ice using a switch to activate the hairdryer.
Jeans for Genes day. Ducklings did lots of amazing activities for this. We designed our own jeans, had a large scale jean design, used spray bottles to wipe the jeans away, had blue playdough and a blue sensory tray.
Ducklings went on a Bear Hunt in the Woodlands and we did a sensory walk in class.
Some fabulous sharing of resources in Music
Ducklings visit the Adventure Playground! This was their first visit and they had a fabulous time exploring the big climbing frame, swing and trampoline.

Some of our Maths work so far. We have looked at shapes using bricks, blocks and shape sorters. There was also some amazing work using sticks to make a square! In number our focus has been '5 Little Ducks'
We're Going on a Bear Hunt...We sat as a class and read our sensory story, they all did amazing! We then had a sensory circuit to explore the elements of the story and also used the salad spinners to make our own bear.
