The children in Yellow Class are working every Monday with Clare and an artist called Lou. Over the last few weeks they have used their bodies, especially their feet, to explore texture and space and observed and drawn a fish. The children have really enjoyed both making marks and creating structures on a very large scale.

Every Thursday 2 groups of children, one from red class and one from yellow class, go to Chellow Dene Wetland with Liz our 'Forest School' leader and Kim or Sumayyah to participate in Forest school activities. We use the natural environment and resources we find to help the children develop socially, physically and to enhance their problem solving skills. The children have enjoyed watching the leaves on the trees change colour and fall from the trees as Autumn progressed. We have used a small fire to prepare our snack of hot chocolate and popcorn and used stories as a catalist to activities. We used Precy the Park Keepers Treasure Hunt to help the children understand how to do a picture trail to find our 'Treasure' of chocolate gold coins.

This half term we have used the story ‘Peace at Last’ to help us think about ‘dark’ nights and ‘light’ days. We have spent a long time exploring different types of lights, including torches to make shadows. We have been using circuits to help us find out how bulbs light up. We have been learning about nocturnal animals that like to come out at night and have enjoyed observing the animals, using paints, pastels and pencils to draw them.

To raise money for 'Children In Need' we had a 'Spotty Day'. We all came to nursery dressed in spotty clothes and wore bandannas that we had made the day before using paint dabbers to make spots. Throughout the day we did lots of spotty tasks, these included making spotty patterns with peg boards, using play dough to make 'Pudsey Bear' spotty, made play dough buns and we even decorated spotty biscuits to eat for snack.

We have been printing with Stars, Moons and Shapes to create a night scene. AND We have observed a Badger, Hedgehog and Owl and made sketches using pastels. We talked about how these animals come out when it is dusk or in the dark to hunt.

Thank you for everyone who supported us in raising money for Children in Need and wore something spotty. We enjoyed spotty biscuits for snack and found the spots in the gel tray with the tweezers.
