Our text this half term is Handa's Surprise.

Welcome back to another busy half term in Frogs class. We will be exploring fruits, Africa and wild animals this half term through our new text, Handa's Surprise. 

We are also excited to welcome new Frogs this half term.  

Week 1       

Our first week back has been very busy. We were excited to discover a big tray of interesting fruits on our return to nursery. 

We discussed the fruits and discovered what the children already knew about them. 

We went on to cut the fruit up and make some delicious fruit kebabs out of them.                 

I think pineapples are spikey and delicious - Heidi 

 I have strawberries on my pancakes - Shifa

Mango is sweet and juicy - Halima   

We were also lucky enough to have a visit from  the Bradford dental team who are helping to teach our children how to look after their teeth. The children learned all about the foods that keep our teeth healthy and the foods we should only eat as a treat. Gina also let us all have a go at brushing teeth and reminded the children they should be doing this twice a day. 

In RE this week we have explored the story of Noah's Ark, and how he saved the animals from the flood. We compared Noah to The Good Samaritan, reminding ourselves how important it is to help each other and look after everyone in our world including animals. We used Godly Play to tell the story and then the children re told it using small world provision in the classroom.
