GOLDILOCKS !

The children enjoyed listening to and taking part in the story of Goldilocks and the three bears using props from the story sack. The children used mathematical language such as little, middle-sized and big when comparing the sizes of porridge bowls , chairs and beds. The children were able to predict was going to happen next in the story and also retell narratives in the correct sequence drawing on the language pattern of the story.

 At Towerview Playschool we discussed how to get all the sand play back outside. The children then did a fab job of moving the sand back outside. They thought about what to do, they swept,dug sand into buckets Carried and then sat back and admired their work.

Loved the imagination evolving this week, we provided the group with cardboard packaging, at the beginning of the week it was a roof, then a tunnel and by the end of the week a group was using it as a slide!

We enjoyed a lovely walk through the fields with the 2-3yr group, the were all delighted to see the lambs with their mothers. We watched them play together, feed from their mums and saw one little one trying to stand and balance on his mother' back. The children coped really well with preparing to leave and listening to instructions on the walk - well done guys! you did brilliantly !

The older children have enjoyed playing with the playdough this week and they did really well  following the sequence to create their Mothering Sunday cards.
