Nursery
Welcome to Elmtree Nursery
Welcome to all our new friends at Elmtree Nursery!
This half term our Learning Journey topic will be “Magical Me”. We will begin by settling into our new key groups to become familiar with daily routines and getting to know our teachers.
We will be exploring the story ‘All about families’ By Usborne, learning all about ourselves and others around us and what makes us unique.
In Phonics we will be working on listening skills, listening for sounds around the classroom and beginning our ‘Rhyme time,’ sessions.
In Maths, we will also be practising counting numbers 1-5 using finger rhymes, counting real objects and comparing quantities to develop knowledge of big/ small and short/tall.
We will be mark making using different mediums and materials to create self-portraits, focusing on our features using mirrors. Additionally, we will be learning all about our emotions, using our ‘zones of regulation,’ during reflection time.
