Mrs Wilding’s Weekly Words Summer 7

With the topic of “planting and growing” continuing this week Nursery classes have observed how the seedlings are growing, planting some outdoors. We are looking forward to some crops later in the year. Certainly the rain will be helping the plants though not quite so good for practising for our Sports Day!
Transition children have been busy exploring different life cycles, and the caterpillars, which arrived last week, have grown considerably so we are really looking forward to their development and being able to release painted lady butterflies into the environment. To support the topic the children have been learning about symmetry and metamorphosis.
All the children have been busy making Father’s Day cards for Sunday which I’m sure you will love and we send our best wishes for a lovely time with your children on that special day for all fathers.
During the week commencing 17 June the Nursery children will be learning about “the life cycle of a butterfly”, the colour purple, the number 7 and the letter r. Any small toys incorporating these would be ideal as their “Show and Tell” item this week. Transition children will continue learning about life cycles and the letter a.
Reminders
Please remember that we operate an “Open Door” policy. This means that any time you wish to have a discussion about your child’s progress please ask the class leader who will agree a mutually convenient time for this.
