Nursery (Pips) 2024 - 2025
Mrs Fowler
Nursery Class Teacher
We have a very busy and exciting Spring term ahead!
Spring Term Topics
We are excited to introduce the following curriculum topics to the children for the Spring Term:
Starry Night
In the 'Starry Night' topic your child will explore the difference between day and night. They will look at pictures of the night sky and discuss different features of space and make their own rockets and space craft. They will learn about animals that are nocturnal and discuss where they live. They will look at different people and jobs that are worked during the night.
Winter Wonderland
In the Winter Wonderland topic the children will explore the season of Winter and winter weather. They will learn about keeping safe and healthy in the Winter and will investigate ice (and snow if we have any!)
Supporting your child at home
Look out of the window at the night sky and discuss what you can see
Go on a Winter walk. Discuss the features of your local environment-what has changed since Autumn?
Look at books and pictures and discuss different nocturnal animals
Dinosaurs
In the Dinosaurs topic we will learn about many types of dinosaurs that lived long ago and will look at where they lived and what they ate. We will also be discussing exciting features of their habitats such as volcanoes, forests, oceans and rivers. We will also have a visit from some dinosaur puppets and go on a fossil dig!
Spring
We will learn about the Season of Spring, investigating spring flowers such as tulips and daffodils. We will explore different events that happen in the Spring time such as Valentines Day, Shrove Tuesday and Mothers Day. We will also learn about Easter and will visit our local church to participate in some Easter crafts.
Supporting your child at home
Go on a day trip and look at the dinosaurs in the Natural History museum.
Look at books and pictures of different dinosaurs
Go on a Spring walk and discuss what you can see.
Please take pictures of any exciting activities that you do and share them with us on Tapestry.
We look forwards to all of the fun that we will have
