We wanted to show our support for Anti-Bullying Week (13th - 17th November) so on Monday we joined the nation in wearing odd socks to Nursery! Odd Socks Day is all about embracing and celebrating people's differences, and accepting one another for who we are. It has also been World Nursery Rhyme Week, with a focus on a different rhyme each day. On Monday we had a range of activities based around 'Jack and Jill', which was followed on Tuesday with 'Hickory Dickory Dock'. As well as working together to sequence the numerals around the clock face and thinking of a rhyme to go with each number as the little grey mouse landed on it, we also compared the length of tails of the different white mice and talked about which one was 'long', 'short', 'longer', 'shorter', 'longest' and 'shortest'. On Wednesday our activities were inspired by 'Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes' which was then followed on Thursday by lots of fun based around different versions of 'Row, Row, Row Your Boat'. After creating alternative verses for 'The Wheels on the Bus' on Friday, our follow-up activities included designing different routes for the bus to follow, constructing our own bus and taking turns to be the driver or a passenger, and exploring different tyre tracks by driving a variety of vehicles through some paint! Friday was also Children in Need and this year rather than dressing up, the children were encouraged to 'Get Spotted' for being kind. Along with the staff, Puppet John was ready with his coloured spot stickers to award for acts of kindness! It certainly has been a very busy week!
