Nursery: Blog items
Welcome to this week's learning
Date: 4th May 2020 @ 8:01am
Hello again Nursery!
It’s lovely to be back on the Nursery blog. I will be posting lots of interesting activities and challenges this week and Miss Heritage is busy thinking of some more fun things to do with you next week.
‘Nursery Nursery who can it be? Teach me about your family’
I want to let you know about the challenges I’m setting you this week. They are all about teaching me about your family and where you live. I will post separate blogs for each of the challenges very soon. By the end of the week the home learning you send in will show me some things that are the same as your friends, some similarities and some differences because all of our families and homes are unique to us.
Video Exercises imoves
Before learning every day why not try some funky imoves active blasts to get your body and mind ready for the challenges we set for you?
Connected Curriculum Weekly Challenge
‘The Family Book’ is all about celebrating the kinds of families we have and you can choose a challenge as a follow up to show me your learning
Vocabulary Weekly Challenge
This week we will be focussing on using the language of shape and texture to talk about the pictures we see in a book called ‘Baby Animals’
Reading Weekly Challenge
On the blog this week we’re going to share a CBeebies bedtime story every night. Each day I will post a new link for you to watch before you go to bed.
Home Learning Weekly Challenge
Send any photos or videos of the challenges you complete at home to me by Friday tea time and I’ll put them all up on the blog for you to share with your friends. This is one of my favourite parts of blogging from home so please send lots and lots of photos or short videos in.
nurseryhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
Tomorrow I will start setting you a daily phonics and maths challenge too, as well as posting the next CBeebies bedtime story so you can end your day relaxing with a book
Maths Daily Challenges
This week we will be using a book from our Maths area, ‘Big Round Red Balloon’ to learn about flat, 2D shapes. YOU WILL NEED TOILET OR KITCHEN ROLL TUBES ON THURSDAY SO START SAVING THEM.
Phonics Daily Challenges
This week we are going to continue to work on linking initial sounds to objects and isolating initial sounds to be able to complete lots of challenges with our families using the beginning sound of their names. We will use the book, ‘Alfie’s Alphabet’ to help us
I’m so excited about this week of learning together at home. Hope you are too!

Hi everyone and Happy Friday! I can't believe it's already the end of another week. I hope everyone is working hard and staying safe.
I got the idea for today's wellbeing challenge yesterday when I saw the most amazing rainbow in the sky. It was the brightest colours I've ever seen and I could see the whole arc. There was even a faint second rainbow next to it!
Photos don't really show how amazing it was but you can see how vivid the colours are:
The rainbow made me feel happy when I saw it and I thought it might make other people happy too! So today's challenge is to take a photo of something that makes you feel happy. You could find something in your house or do it on a walk. It could be a person, an animal, an object or even something that you've made. Anything that makes you feel happy or positive. If you don't have a camera, phone or tablet of your own then ask an adult if you can borrow theirs but please be careful with it!
If you'd like to share your happy photo then please e-mail it to EALhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk, I'd love to see it and then I can post some of them and spread the happiness around!
Have a good weekend,
Mrs Glover
Past challenges
Thanks to A who sent a photo of himself doing the breathing exercises I set yesterday, I hope they helped you feel nice and calm.

Hi everyone,
Let's start our day by singing a days of the week song (a different one today!):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loINl3Ln6Ck
What day is it today? Thats right... It's Fantastic Friday! What day will it be tomorrow?
This week, in our Maths learning we have been ordering and sequencing events.
For today's challenge you will need a teddy or toy (doll)!
You are going to help one of your teddies or toys to get ready for bed, by talking through the order and sequence of what they need to do.
What do they need to do first? What do they need to do next?
Talk about all the things your toy needs to do before they go to bed – Have they brushed their teeth? Have they put on their night clothes? Can you read them a bedtime story?
Take a look at the picture below.
With your adult see if you can make a list of the sequence. You can help your teddy by drawing pictures and talking about the order, what comes first? What do they need to do next?
.jpeg)
You could also have a go at this extra challenge this weekend too!
Extra challenge: Draw pictures of activities you do this weekend. Can you use the words first, next, after that and finally to describe the order of what you have done?
Amazing! Well done for all of your super work this week! Keep sending pictures of your learning to: nurseryhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
I hope you have a fantastic weekend!

Good Morning Nursery...Happy Friday!
We have been very busy this week learning about rhyme and completeing lots of rhyming activities.
Today I would like you to play a game with me!
The game called 'I spy'.
CLICK HERE TO PLAY 'I SPY' GAME
Fantastic! I hope you were able to make a rhyming pair by matching my word with the picture that rhymed with it!
It would be great if you can have a go at playing this game at home with your grown up. You could draw some pictures or find some objects and ask your adult to play.
Your grown up can say 'I spy with my little eye, something that rhymes with...(bat)'. Then you can find the picture or object that rhymes with their word (cat)!
I have also attached a rhythm and rhyme home learning challenge sheet for you to have a look at. See if you can complete some of these fun rhyming activities over the weekend too!
Have a great day!

Good morning everyone,
I hope everyone enjoyed some relaxing colouring yesterday, here is a picture of mine. It isn't quite finished yet but I had a nice relaxing hour doing it last night:
.jpg/colouring(1)__427x320.jpg)
Today's challenge is to do a mindfulness breathing activity. Mindfulness can help you relax and be in the moment, appreciating everything that's around you.
Just one breath
Find a relaxing place where you won't be disturbed. Sit in a comfortable position, either with your legs crossed or any comfortable posture. This activity can be done in as little as one minute, but you can also do it for longer periods of time.
Begin by setting a timer for one minute.
Start breathing deeply in and out. Notice how the breath feels as it moves in and out of your body. Notice how the air feels on your skin. Pay attention to any sensations that you notice or any sounds that you hear.
Take another slow deep breath and see if you can imagine how the breath moves down into the lungs and then back up again. Thank your body and breath for giving you life and keeping you healthy.
Take one more deep breath and hold the breath for a moment - then release it.
If any thoughts worry you, try and imagine your thoughts immersed in a white, puffy cloud and push the thought cloud out of your awareness.
Afterward, notice how you feel after taking this one-minute break.
If you want to tell me about your experience or send any photos of yourself doing the activity then e-mail me on EALhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk.
There are more simple instructions below.

Yesterday we look at pictures from the book 'Jaspers beanstalk' and you talked to your adult about the order and sequence of the story by saying what Jasper did on each day.
Today I would like you to think about the order of your day.
Take a look at the picture below and discuss with your adult what you do at different times of the day.
.jpeg)
Talk about your morning and evening routine: What do you do first, next, last?
Can you draw pictures to show the order of the things you do at these times of the day?
Don't forget, we love to see your learning so make sure you send your pictures to: nurseryhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk

Hello everyone,
It's a rather miserable looking Wednesday out there so my wellbeing challenge today is an indoor one.
It's actually quite a simple challenge today; I'd simply like you to do some colouring. Colouring is a lovely relaxing activity that you can do on your own for some me-time or together with a family member to make it a more sociable activity.
I think most of you were given some colouring pages when we finished school but if you've already used these and don't have any more at home then good news, there is a website where you can do online colouring without having to have any colours or anything printed out:
https://www.online-coloring.com/
Or you could always draw something to colour! Anything you like.
I have a new Enchanted Forest colouring book that my husband bought me (pictured below) that I'm going to do a bit of colouring in later, maybe while I listen to a podcast or to some music to have a bit of a break from staring at a screen. I'll post a picture of my efforts tomorrow.
Remember to send in pictures of your challenges to EALhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
Mrs Glover

A big thanks to Roderigo from Year 1 who sent me a picture of his crystal ball challenge from yesterday, some fantastic goals there!

Today we are going to be looking at the order and sequence of the story.
You can remind yourself of the story and listen to it again by using the link below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4OIrJWXfjs
Today I would like you to talk with your grown up about what Jasper does on each day of the week.
Use the picture cards attached below to discuss what he does on each day of the week.
Talk about the order and sequence of the story. What does he do first? What happens next? Which day follows? What happens on that day?
Today is Wednesday. What does Jasper do on Wednesday? What will he do tomorrow? (Thursday)
Below I have attached a rhyme to help you remember the order and sequence of events for the story.
Wednesday 29th April - Phonics
Date: 28th Apr 2020 @ 1:27pm
Good Morning!
Let’s start our learning today by listening to a rhyming story.
UCan you join in with the words to the story and repetitive phrases?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoQyyB5xvLk
Today we are continuing to learn about rhyme.
We are going to play a game called ‘odd one out’.
Have a look at the pictures on the strips below and say the name of each item.
.jpeg)
Listen carefully … can you find the one that doesn’t rhyme with the others? Remember to listen to the sound at the end of the word.
Let’s see if you can find the rhyming pair?
Which one is the ‘odd one out’?
You could collect some objects from around your house and have a go at playing this game with items too! (You may be able to use the following rhyming pairs: hat, cat, dog, log, pan, can, car, jar, pen, ten, duck, truck. Then find some other objects too that will not rhyme)
Ask an adult to choose 3 items (a rhyming pair and one that does not rhyme) and place them on the table. Point and name each item. Then have a go at finding the rhyming pair and the ‘odd one out’.
I hope you have fun playing this rhyming game!
Date: 28th Apr 2020 @ 10:56am
Good morning everyone,
Today's challenge is all about thinking positivity and making the most of your time while you're not at school .
Imagine looking into a cyrstal ball 3 months from now.
Draw or write what challenges you are facing, what positive changes you want to make and what might be different in 3 months time.
Try to focus on things that seem possible to achieve like starting a new hobby, learning a few words in a new language or getting better at some of your learning like reading or times tables.
I've done mine on the computer (on MS Word) as my paper is in the study where my husband is on a video call for work so I didn't want to disturb him! But you can do yours however you want.
I've included a picture of mine below if you want to have a look!
Please feel free to tell me about any of the wellbeing challenges you have done, I'd love to see what you're all doing in your free time! You can now e-mail me on Ealhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk to let me know (or to contact me or Mrs Harriott about any EAL home learning too)
Have a good day!

In the story ‘Jasper’s beanstalk’ Jasper planted a bean and waited for the bean to grow.
Hopefully the weather will stay fine this week, so when you go outside have a look around and see if you can spot things that grow.
What plants, trees or flowers can you see outside or in your garden? You can use the 'plant and flower hunt' sheet attached to see which ones you can spot.
Talk and describe to your adult what you can see.
How long do you think it has taken for the plant, tree or flowers to grow?
How do you think it has changed?
You could draw a picture or take photographs of the plants / trees you find.
It would be great if you could plant your own bean /bulbs / plants / flowers or vegetables at home and watch them grow. You would then be able to see how it has changed over time.
I am going to plant sunflower seeds in my garden and watch to see how tall the sunflowers will grow!
You could even try planting pepper seeds or apple pips and watch to see if they grow too!
Have a look at the picture below for some creative planting ideas.
You can also use the links and activities below to find out some more about growing and planting:

Yesterday we read the story ‘Jaspers beanstalk’. If you haven’t had chance to listen to it, you can by using the link below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Da6lxY_8jmU&t=18s
At nursery we are ‘Speaking Superheroes’!
.jpeg)
Over the last two terms, we have learnt lots of vocabulary relating to size and we use a wide range of words to describe and compare different sizes of things.
Do you remember this part of the story?
.jpeg)
Today’s vocabulary challenge is to look at the picture above.
Think carefully about how the beanstalk has changed over time.
Now you can be a ‘Speaking Superhero’ by using lots of great words to describe the different sizes of the beanstalk?
Can you draw different sized beanstalks?
Use your ‘Speaking Superhero’ words to describe the sizes of your beanstalks and ask your grown up to write the words you have used next to your picture.
Don’t forget to send a picture of your learning to: nurseryhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
I can’t wait to see your super work!

Happy Monday everyone!
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend and made the most of the lovely warm weather (I think it might be the last hot sun for a while although it seems nice so far this morning!)
Today's challenge is to do something that I have just discovered myself although my husband has been nagging me to do it for a while - Listen to a podcast.
A podcast is a bit like a radio show that you can download to your tablet, phone or laptop and listen to either while you relax or while you go for a walk. Some include music, some are educational, some entertain you and some are just good for helping you relax. You can listen to them with others or by yourself if you need a bit of me time.
This weekend I have been listening to one called Sounds of the 90s by Fearne Cotton that includes lot of music from the 90s as well as intervews with 90s pop stars. I've been listening to it while I go on my hour long walks every day and I think some of the teachers may also enjoy it!
Here are some podcasts I've found that I think you might all like, the links are under each description:
But Why: A pocast for curious kids
A podcast answering lots of questions that you may find interesting!
http://digital.vpr.net/programs/why-podcast-curious-kids
Storytime
10 - 15 minute stories (mostly for little ones)
http://bedtime.fm/storytime
What if world
With wacky episode titles such as "What if Legos were alive?" and "What if sharks had legs?," this series takes ridiculous "what if" questions submitted by young listeners and turns them into a new story every two weeks.http://www.whatifworldpodcast.com/
Noodle Loaf
A delightful offering from a music education specialist and his co-host daughter will get kids of all ages singing, rhyming, moving, and engaging in all kinds of musical games. The segments, games, and songs are so silly and upbeat that the whole family will enjoy participating. Little listeners can even add their voice to the theme song in the podcast's electronically compiled kid's choir!
http://noodleloafshow.com/
Be Calm on Ahway Island
Includes soothing stories and mindulness techniques
https://www.ahwayisland.com/

I hope you watched ‘What’s in the box?’ last week. If you didn’t get chance then take a look now to see if you can use the clues to guess our new theme!
Can you think of any books that we might be looking at?
Did you have a guess? Well done if you did!
Our theme for the next couple of weeks is planting and growing!
Here is a picture of the front cover of the book we will be looking at this week.
.jpeg)
With your adult have a look at the front cover of the book and talk to your grown up about what you can see (Remember to speak in sentences ‘I can see…’)
Can you point to the title and read it by pointing to the words (Remember to point from left to right)
Talk about the picture: Who is the character? What is he holding? What do you think he is going to do?
Amazing!
Now click on the link below and listen to Miss Heritage reading the story to you!
Following the story, use the photographs and vocabulary mat below to talk about and respond to the story:
Talk about what Jasper wanted to do.
What did he need (tools/gardening equipment)?
What did Jasper do first, next etc?
Encourage your child to talk about what Jasper did on each day.
Talk about how Jasper felt at different parts of the story e.g. happy, excited, bored, sad etc. How do you know he was feeling that way? Can you find a picture to show how he was feeling?
What did Jasper do at the end of the story? What was he looking for?
Do we know any other stories about beanstalks and giants?
Think about what you would like to see at the top of the beanstalk.
Can you draw a picture of what you would find at the top?
Fantastic! I hope you enjoyed this book. I have put another link here for you to watch, listen and join in with the story again. You can repeat the words after each picture!

Good morning everyone, another lovely sunny day! I can't wait to get out there in the sun for a bit.
Fot the last day of the week I'm giving you a slightly different wellbeing challenge today and it's something that always makes me feel happy and a bit better if I'm feeling a bit low.
Today's challenge is to do something nice for someone. Here are some ideas below although feel free to do one of your own ideas!
1. Read or tell a story to a younger brother or sister
2. Tidy your room
3. Do a chore or job for someone at home
4. Give someone a compliment
5. Share a toy or some food with someone at home
6. Make someone a present, picture or card
7. Offer to help an adult with the cooking or washing up
8. Write someone a poem or story
9. Tell someone a joke
10. Phone a friend or send them a nice message
See how many of the 10 you can do and remember to let us know what you have done!
I'm going to do some baking for my husband for my good deed and maybe make him a nice dinner as well. In fact, I might go and take him a cup of tea while he's doing his work! :-)
Have a lovely weekend,
Mrs Glover
