This morning, we began our topic on Evolution with a lesson on understanding evolution in finches. We learned about Darwin and his travels on the HMS Beagle, which took him to the Galapagos Islands. We then took part in an activity that helped us understand how differences in the beaks of finches determined which insects/seeds/fruit they eat.
It was a lot of fun but also quite frustrating trying to pick items up with pegs and tweezers!!

We have had a lovely start to the new term as we have welcomed some new children to nursery! They are all enjoying exploring the nursery and today they spent the afternoon having lots of fun in the outdoor area. We are really looking forward to getting to know everyone properly and having some super adventures together!
Fee, Fie, Foe, Fum! There's a lot of planting to be done!

Today in Recepetion a mystery letter delivered to the classroom. The children were so excited to see who it was from. The giant in the sky had sent us some magical beans and set us an important task of growing a beanstalk, just like the one in Jack's garden. As a group we talked about the different things a plant needs to grow big and healthy including; water, sunlight and nutrients from the soil.

We started this half term by learning about the different parts of the plant. We went outside and dissected some carnations and dandelions to find the stem, leaves, root and flower and talked about the different jobs that each of them did.
