Mark making area
I thought it might be nice to show some pictures of our Nursery environment. All the photos have been taken with no children in them so are very tidy. While the Nursery is in session it is a totally different matter.
These pictures show our mark making area although we have notepads, clipboards, diaries, blackboards etc all around the Nursery. As you can see we have the children's writing after reading Room on the Broom. All writing is valued -even those little scribbles.
On the writing shelves to the left we have writing pencils, coloured pencils, thin crayons, chunky crayons, scissors for right and left hand, Beryl broad felt tips and Beryl chunky felt tips.
On the middle shelf we have alphabet and number strips, rulers, hole punches, paper clips, sellotape, treasury tags, a basket of 2d shapes and a basket of notepads, diaries and post it notes.
On the bottom shelf we have white paper, coloured paper, tracing paper, envelopes, stencils, clipboards A4 and A5. To the right of the area we have 3 baskets which contain shaped paper, alphabet mats, and larger paper. Often we have writing material like invitations, pencil control sheets, sometimes colouring sheets -yes colouring sheets, although we hide them when advisors come to visit!
