We’ve enjoyed listening to ‘Dinosaur Roar’ during our story times in Nursery this week. We talked about the different parts of a book, including the front and back cover, the title and blurb.
“Dinosaur weak, dinosaur strong, dinosaur short or dinosaur very, very long”
We looked at the illustrations and talked about the meaning of the different words in the story. We also used our funky fingers to cut some dinosaurs out and stick them to our class story map. We will use next week as we continue our learning using this story.
We’ve also played lots of Dinosaur Bingo taking turns and using our great looking skills to spot and match the dinosaurs.
Help at home
Independence is an important skill for all of the children in Nursery. Being able to put on their coat, fasten it and go outside is a significant achievement. We support the children to do this independently at Nursery. Practicing these skills at home, maybe on a weekend when you have a little more time, will support the children’s development considerably.
