This week, we welcomed new children to nursery & read 'Hello Friend!', a beautiful picture book about kindness, empathy, & friendship. We created representations of ourselves, friends, & family.

'Hello Daisies!'
The advent of each season brings with it unique natural characteristics.
Nursery children love to improve their understanding of the world. Leading up to summer, there’s growth to experience, observe, & enjoy outside on warm, sunny days.🌞 #EYFS New Silksworth Academy

As part of our RE curriculum New Silksworth Academy we have been thinking about places which are special to us. Lovely to hear the excitement and joy as the children were able to verbalise why their place was special to them 😍

The look of concentration New Silksworth Academy as the children work together to use screws, bolts, wheels and blocks to create vehicles. Lots of new vocabulary used as they constructed 🤩

Day 1 of summer term New Silksworth Academy and the children were confident blending the words, recognising the digraphs and trigraphs and also recognising the tricky words. Fantastic reading 📚 Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Revised 💙

We had a visitor to nursery garden today. Not Incy Wincy, his cousin..Bigsy Wigsy Spider 🕷
It was fantastic to see so much detail without a magnifying glass, but we had to be quick!
'He's really running, Mrs Merrie!'
'Can we keep it?' 🫣😬

First we layered paint on sugar paper with different colours and textures to add depth. We then cut out shapes to match our insect samples.

Results speak for themselves. Every single one is as unique as the artist!

It warms my soul when I see our youngest children enjoying opportunities for free artistic exploration. Today, this 2 year old was completely absorbed, just painting a cup. Nobody existed for that moment in time. Beautiful 😍

Nursery enjoyed playful exploration of materials, processes & ideas to create spring pictures. Nurturing dexterity skills, promoting an early understanding of visual literacy, & building confidence in their ability to make a personal, creative response to a stimuli. AccessArt
