O for Orange

This week we continued our exploration of the number six, we also learnt about the phonic sound "o". The children discovered that if they mixed yellow and red together, it made the colour orange. Nursery also made orange juice and then made some printing art using the oranges. We also continued with or topic of police for our learning about people who help us in our community. We made Lost Posters for a missing pet and then some children became police officers and went to investigate it.

Six Fat Sausages

Nursery learnt about the sound of the letter "Nn" as well as other sounds that we can make with our mouths, as an exercise to support blending of sounds that make up words. The students made necklaces, chocolate nests and made "n" formations by tearing and sticking pieces of newspaper. We also explored the number 6, they especially enjoyed acting out the song, Six Fat Sausages. We also continued our exploration of The Police. We even made our own Wanted Posters.
