Our Summer Term Project is ‘Around the World’!
This term at Chrysalis we will be taking the children on a world-wide adventure exploring some of the different continents and countries on our planet.

The Summer term is the perfect time for a project based on gardens. We thought that it would be a brilliant way to share some of the things that our children like about their gardens at home, and the things that they see there. For those children who don’t have access to a garden, this project will be particularly beneficial, as we will be bringing a little bit of the joy of a garden into nursery for us all to share together.
Providing growing and gardening opportunities for young children enables them to connect with the living environment, something that not all children have access to often enough.
This project is always incredibly popular with Chrysalis children and gives us the whole realm of children’s literature and folklore to draw upon.
Why do young children enjoy a traditional story so much?

Do you ever wonder why we put so much emphasis in the preschool years on teaching colours and shapes? Why is this so important for young children?
So, let’s start by stating the fact that our world is literally made up of colours and shapes. That is what we see all around us!
Last term the children took great delight in learning about colours in our ‘Colours and Shapes’ project. There are so many great activities that support this area of learning that we found time was running out, and before we knew it, Christmas was upon us! Although we started to touch on the ‘shapes’ element of the project with the children, there is really so much to explore.
So, for this term we will be really focussing on the shapes that make up our world, and how these shapes can be joined together to form spaces and structures.
