Pre Nursery B Newsletter
Volume 30
17th May 2014
Dear Families,
The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and the bees are buzzing!
Students of Pre Nursery B are not wasting any time when enjoying this
weather! It’s a hot and dry summer, so we are keeping cool with many
water and sand activities, as well as our ‘always favourite’ summer
activity …Swimming!!! We have been very busy learning all about
summer. Books, stories and crafts pertaining to our summer theme have
been enjoyed by all. Throughout this month we will continue our
learning with outdoor water-play and summer strolls in the mornings
where we can see, hear, smell and touch all of the wonders of summer!
We believe that the summer months should be a little less structured and
a little more fun. Their daily schedule will still include numeracy,
language, Art, Music and FREE Play but it will be more hands-on and they
will learn through play and imagination.
Students also sang rhyme ‘sooraj ek’ for the Primary school assembly on
Friday.
Students were given picture of mango asked to
colour it according to their choice of colours. It
was quite interesting to see that some of them
preferred to colour their mango yellow whereas
there were quite a few who wanted it green and
some even coloured it orange.
Students select the colour of their favourite ice
cream to make scoops on their own. Some
wanted their ice cream scoop yellow and orange
as they preferred mango and orange flavour,
some preferred their brown and pink as
chocolate and strawberry flavour were their
favourite and some wanted it green.
We also shared what we do while we go out in
the sun during summer. We went to the park
when it was quite hot and saw how we sweat and
then feel thirsty. Students also shared they like
to switch on the air conditioner and eat loads of
ice cream during summer. We have started
sharing a lot during circle time as well.

Many things for the children to

concepts of sinking and floating. We

things will sink and which things will
float. Items like sponge, pounder,
