We have been learning about spots and stripes.

I am getting my practice in when looking after baby as I'm going to be a big sister very soon. I copy what the adult does as she encourages me to play imaginatively.

# data[].attributes.body
Here I am showing care and concern for the baby. I dressed the baby ready for the day ahead and then gave the baby a bottle of milk.

I love listening to the adults singing nursery rhymes to me. I feel the soft toy animals linked to the song. I smile and give great eye contact during these moments. When the adult said 'splash' I dropped the frog into the pond showing that I understand what is coming next.

During the month of December we take part in activities to celebrate Christmas. We have been busy decorating the tree.

It was so cold outside this week that the water had turned to ice overnight. We found lots of blocks of ice around the garden. We explored it using our senses and then we discovered that we could break it into pieces.

We experimented with the watercolour palettes. We used paintbrushes to create artwork on watercolour paper.

# data[].attributes.body
We worked together to place the decorations on the tree.

We used our hands to scoop up the snow and tried to make snowballs.

# data[].attributes.body
What a wonderful surprise it was to see snow falling from the sky when we woke up this morning. We donned our waterproofs and wellies and didn't hesitate to get outside and explore.

I learnt the name for a triangle and placed them all in a frame together. Great sorting!

I looked at different shapes in a book.

# data[].attributes.body
My picture was created by different sized circles which I placed on top of one another. I concentrated and moved slowly as I didn't want them to topple over.

# data[].attributes.body
I created a picture using only circles. I identified the shape and fit them into the frame.

# data[].attributes.body
We have been learning about shapes. We used loose parts of different shapes to create transient art shape pictures.

# data[].attributes.body
We shared a book with one of our adults in class. We looked at the different objects on each page all being of the same colour. Afterwards we sorted the loose parts in the sorting tray by colour.

I love it when the adults sing familiar nursery rhymes with me. This builds upon my attention/focus and supports my social interaction with others.

# data[].attributes.body
This kept my concentration for some time as I patiently tried to fit the puzzle pieces into the correct position.

# data[].attributes.body
I know that I can selects a book of my choosing independently. I turn the pages of the hardback book and look closely at the pictures. An adult labels the animal on each page and the sound that they make.

# data[].attributes.body
We take part in 'Write Dance' sessions where we make marks as a whole class group. We use different mark making materials such as crayons, chalks, paintbrushes and pens to make marks to music. Taking part in these group activities encourages us all to take part alongside our friends, strengthens our motor movements to support them to become more controlled and defined over time.

I am requesting for what I want by using the communication tubs. I can see what is inside and if it is something that I really want I find an adult to open the lid and give me what is inside. I love requesting for bread sticks as they are my favourite snack. We communicate in this way before we use words.

We dressed in our traditional clothing today. I looked very smart in my outfit that my mummy got me in India.

I spent a very long time exploring and experimenting with the glue. I don't usually like to have any sticky materials on my hands but today I loved the feel of the glue. I learnt what I could do with it by freely exploring. I took a liking to the mesh strips. I added them to the wooden block and moulded them together with my hands. They were covered in glue. I dropped the mesh ball onto the wooden block from a height again and again. I then pressed the mesh down onto the block.
