Fur the love of learning

Inspired by the cold weather and swirling, whirling snow storm this week, Froglets have launched into the story ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’. We shared the story with our parents during Stay and Play on Wednesday, made ‘bears on toast’, honey bear biscuits, finger painted bears with actual squelchy, squerchy mud and even had a class vote on whether we thought the bear wanted to PLAY with the family or EAT them (EAT won, with 20 votes!). We then made an actual cardboard box maze based on the story. One child at a time, they entered the door to maze with just a torch for light, as they passed through each of the boxes they visited an environment from the story with the children above making the appropriate sounds. Each box had an illustration from the story and the words from the story were written inside by one of our fabulous budding writers! Next time it’ll be big enough for adults too (sorry parents!).

Next week will be Teddy Bear week in Nursery. Keep your eyes peeled for more exciting adventures…
