Goldilocks and the three Bears !

At Broadway Playschool (2-3 group) they loved the big box ! after a while they all wanted to hide in it, we put a cushion and a blanket inside to make it cosy ! and just before we tidied the paints away one little girl decided it would be lovely to paint the box !!! beautiful- child initiated, child led play at its best !!!

 

Meanwhile at Towerview –the whole ‘Goldilocks and the three bears ‘ theme was in all their play – on the headphones& reading the story, in the role play, in the sand - & they liked making and then eating the porridge for snack!   The flapjacks were very yummy too.

As part of the transition work we are doing, the reception teacher came to read a story and was shown the school dressing up clothes by two boys –  she was very impressed at their counting skills & how well they listened to the story.

At Forest School the children really enjoyed the overgrown forest this week, looking for bugs, slugs, and snails. listening and looking out for Mr Robin !! – there are at least 2 down there and they come to get the dropped biscuits form our snack time!

Excellent conversations and team work, looking at the bluebells, and making mud pies – and when asked what they were making, one child said  "i am using a ‘recipe’!"   They found worms and used the reference books to see which kind they had found.
