Nursery Rhymes

Nursery rhymes play such an important role in developing children's language and communication skills.

We regularly sing a variety of Nursery rhymes during our sessions and this year we will be taking part in:

- National Nursery Rhyme Week (16th - 20th November 2020).

- Pori Drwy Stori - It's Time to Rhyme!

Stories

In Nursery we learn how to use books, for example, turning pages, pointing to words and pictures etc.

We regularly share stories and talk about books during 'Story Time' and it's great to see children independently

applying these skills in the book corner.

Early Mark Making

One of our favourite days of the week is Wednesday, where we take part in Squiggle Whilst You Wiggle or Dough Disco!

During these sessions, we use dance and large body movements with music to develop our fine motor skills

which we will later need for writing.
