Feelings!

Hello Nursery parents, 

 This week we have been learning all about feelings and shared some things which make us feel happy, sad, scared or angry. We talked about how everyone has feelings and a great way to tell how someone is feeling is by looking at their expressions. Using a mirror we had a go at showing how we felt and then had fun guessing the moods of our friends! Can you guess how we are feeling?

 Elmo showed us how its good to talk about our feelings and we tried to name some of the things which make us happy as we made our smiley face handprints. Obviously Nursery have fabulous parents because "My Mummy and Daddy" was the most popular answer! Some other suggestions were  "Grandpa" "Icecream!", "cookies", "Grandma" and "playing with my brother". "Seeing trains" and "Sitting on a boat or plane" also made some of the boys happy...can you guess who?

We had fun drawing some expressions with the big markers and then tried to draw our own reflections on our mirrors!

The class really loved reading  the book "No, David!" and had fun joining in with his mum' frustrated cries of "No, David!" as he gets into some mischief. It was great to see them recognizing and shouting out the different emotions David goes through in the story. We are so good at talking about our emotions now and sharing how we feel. Our final piece of artwork was making clay faces to represent the many moods of David.

Aren't they great?!

Here are just some more pics of your gorgeous kids having fun....
