Today in Nursery we decided we wanted to make heart shaped biscuits. We talked about who we were making our biscuits for. Using our FMS we stirred the mixture and pressed the cutter to create the shape.
Toys in Space
Our class text this half-term has been ‘Toys in Space’. Lots of strange things have happened, including toys landing on the school field and a mysterious shadow appearing on our window?! Later this week, we will be writing our very own versions of the story.

Maths week in Year 2
Reception celebrating Chinese New Year
This week we have been celebrating Chinese New Year.
We started the week by having a Chinese Restaurant in our role play area.
On Monday we made Chinese Dragons using our paper folding skills.
On Tuesday we heard about the story of The Chinese Zodiac. This year it is Year of The Pig.
On Wednesday we wrote our own fortune cookie wishes.
On Friday we made vegetable stir fry with noodles. We even had a go at using chopsticks to eat them with.
Chinese New Year & Internet Safety!
Today we have been very busy in Nursery. Firstly, we heard the story about Smartie the penguin and talked about who we can see so that we are safe on the internet. We then coloured a picture of Smartie the penguin whilst discussing how to stay safe.
We then made red paper lanterns using our FMS for cutting and sticking. We discussed that this year was the year of the pig.
We made Mr Grinling’s lighthouse !
