Welcome back to the summer term! The last, but by no means least important, term for learning.

In nursery (at Countess Way) we have begun our learning for our Growing and Changing project by investigating a variety of chicken eggs. The children helped me set the eggs into an incubator and have really enjoyed checking on the eggs through the week. We talked about how we make eggs in different ways e.g. by scrambling or frying them and also foods that they are in such as cakes and pancakes.

Our core book this week and next week is The Little Red Hen. The children in nursery have begun to think about the meaning of the story and why it is important to work together as a team.

To help your child’s learning at home you could make something which contains egg with your child. Talk about how we all change as we grow. You could look at your child’s baby photos with them and talk about how they have changed. Would be great to share baby pics at school too!

Any questions please come and talk to a member of the team.
