This week we read the Teddy Bears’ picnic. We set up picnics in the garden and inside and focused on sharing out items with the bears. The children did brilliant counting and could collect a certain number of items when asked.

We used the playdough to make our favourite picnic food and used marks to create our own shopping lists. We finished the week off by making our own sandwiches with various fillings for our Teddy Bears’ picnic in the garden!

This week we read the story of the three little pigs. We used the puppets to retell the story and concentrated on counting up to 3 this week.

We made different houses using the materials from the story, made pig masks and explored the pigs in muddy gloop.

We also celebrated careers day with different activities and lots of dressing up.

This week we explored the Incy Wincy rhyme in Daycare. The children had lots of fun making spiders and webs using different materials. We looked at positional language using the spiders and tubes in the tuff spot and had a go with our remote control spider, Harry!

This week we explored the little teapot story and rhyme. The children have spent the week exploring tipping and pouring in the water tray and trying to identify full and empty. The children have used their hands to dip and squeeze the tea bags to make our own blend of tea.

We set up a tea shop in our roleplay area and used our maths skills to share out the cups, plates and cakes with our friends. The children also had a go at making their own sandwiches and cakes using the playdough and decorated their own tea pots using different marks to create patterns and shapes.
