Recycling
The children in the nursery have been learning about other items we can recycle in the nursery. Today the children in the afternoon were placing our used ink in the recycling bin in the school. We also recognised that we can recycle bottle tops, batteries and glasses too.
Learning about Spring in Nursery
As part of our seasons topic which is running throughout the year the children have started learning about Spring. The have shared what they are learning in our Big Books which can be viewed anytime you visit the nursery.
The children have been learning that the mornings are lighter now as the clocks changed at the weekend and we got less time in bed. Some of them said they wake up early because the sun shines in their window now.
Today we shared what we knew about growing plants and we have set up an experiment to see how the flowers drink the water up through the stem into their leaves and flower parts. We had to colour the water so we can see this happening.
We also played a game on the C-Touch where we watered the plant and gave it some light to grow and when the flower had no water or light it didn’t grow.
