Chicken Licken

In Nursery this week the children have enjoyed listening to the story of Chicken Licken.  They have been practising rhyme by remembering the names of  the characters in the story.  The children are now able to join in with the repeating phrases with great enthusiasm!

Playdough

The children enjoy playing with the playdough and it is great for developing their fine motor skills.  This week the children noticed that the playdough had become very sticky.  We decided to make some more.  We talked about the ingredients needed and took turns to mix everything together.  The children enjoyed using the playdough when it was still warm and used lots of great vocabulary.

Turn taking

It is very difficult to take turns when you are only three!  This week the children all wanted a turn on the interactive whiteboard.  We talked about taking it in turns and I suggested that the children used the sand timer to help.  With a little encouragement they did really well.
