We have been finding lots of different insects in our nursery garden, and even a frog one day! We have been learning to look after different things, eg our beans we have been growing, washing our dolls and soon our caterpillars will arrive!

Recently, the children found 2 eggs in the nursery. We all talked about what might be inside, and waited patiently…

We found out information using books and the internet. We measured bones, and sticks, and dinosaur feet!
We created stories, and art work all about what we had learned.
