This year our nursery classes continue to be named after Sir David Attenborough (2-3 year olds) and Neil Armstrong (3-4 year olds).
We have been learning about the person our class is named after and completing activities based on what they are famous for.
Sir David Attenborough is known for his distinctive voice and all of the work he does to teach others about different animals and plants from around the world.
Neil Armstrong was an American astronaut. He was the first person to walk on the moon during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. He famously said upon stepping on the moon “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
We are currently learning different nursery rhymes in preparation for our phonic focus after half term.
The nursery rhyme we have been singing each day this week is ‘Baa, Baa, Black Sheep’. You can watch a video of the nursery rhyme and find out more regarding the phonics program we use in the nursery by clicking on the picture opposite or on the link below.
