Nursery Rhyme Week

Nursery Rhyme Week has been lots of fun so far! It is helping us to develop our listening, language and early reading skills even further. We have also been exploring the sounds and meanings of new words, developing and improving our vocabulary skills. Super effort!

We are learning new rhymes and other verses to some of the rhymes we know already. We are using actions, movement, dance and art to express ourselves and develop understanding and skills. It is fun finding out what is inside each box. Can you remember which rhyme is inside the box number 3?

Look at us all! How many different Nursery Rhyme characters can you spot?

Well done everyone! Such superb characters!

Learning the words to new rhymes...

Doctor Foster

Baa Baa Black Sheep

Incy Wincy Spider

Hey Diddle Diddle

Two Little Dickie Birds

We had three extra spiders here today!

The Grand Old Duke of York...

Up to top of the hill...

And he marched them down again

Half way up...

We had our very own Grand Old Duke too!

Using props to support our learning of new rhymes

Watch out for the puddle Doctor Foster!

Splash!

It's right up to your middle!

We're not going to Gloucester again!

We have been making umbrellas. "Up, up, up go umbrellas!" We have been singing other songs about the rain too! Which is your favourite?

Hey Diddle Diddle...

We are taking turns to be the different characters.

It is lots of fun being the dish (running away with the spoon).

Horsey horsey, don't you stop!

Watch this space for more updates!

Happy Rhyming!

We worked together to act out the rhyme.

We took turns to fix Humpty.

"Hip hip hooray. Humpty is okay!"

"Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall"

Oh no! He had a fall!

"All the king's horses and all the king's men... 

Couldn't put Humpty together again..."

"Along came ...with some glue ...put him back together as good as new"

We took turns to be the different characters in the nursery rhyme. 

We used the parachute indoors because the weather was not too good today.

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall

Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. Crack! Ouch!

All the king's horses...

Along came...with some glue

All fixed now. Hooray!
