# Learning about ourselves

  ![Image of Learning about ourselves](https://files.schudio.com/yarm-primary-school-2/images/blog/IMG_3627-e1536567097599-300x224.jpg)  10 September 2018   [anna](https://yarmprimaryschool.net/blog/author/anna)   [Nursery](https://yarmprimaryschool.net/blog/category/nursery)

We have introduced the children to our topic of ‘Me Me Me’ by opening up our new role play ‘Doctors Surgery’. The children have learnt all about what a doctors surgery is used for, why we go, and who might work there. They have had fun dressing up as Doctors and Nurses, writing prescriptions, making appointments, learning how to apply bandages and listening to their heart beat with stethoscopes.

We have also been looking at ourselves in a mirror and identifying our features, asking the questions ‘Do we all look the same?’ and ‘What makes us the same or different?’ The children painted portraits of themselves. Watch out for these in our cloakroom!
