Wow!!! This week has been hectic. We’ve been practicing for international day, prepping decoration, learning about our chosen country, and all the fascinating things that can be found exploring ancient Egypt! π
So we started the week practicing some of our motor skill projects. Pouring water, threading buttons, separating colored beads with chopsticks. Anything to help is get used to using our hands in different ways. We have even started practicing with play dough scissors to prepare us for future cut an paste projects. Growing up so fast kG1B!
Learning about the letter H this week obviously meant having fun with hand print painting! H is for Hand!
Music class this week was led by teacher Jamie. We learnt a new song “Mary had a little lamb” and a how to beat the rhythm out on the percussion instruments! Very enjoyable!
Maths this week was a review of previous learnt vocabulary for shapes. Only instead of doing book work we searched the room for different shaped objects and the completed shape puzzles which required us to stimulate our brains and use or motor skills. We were very found of this maths lesson!
We try’d our hand at baking this week too! Well more like decorating cupcakes baked by teacher Jamie. But it was just as fun! We got messy and sticky using butter chocolate icing and sticking MnM’s on in different shapes. Of course the best part was eating! Our finished cakes! Yum yum!
And of course this week was our KG department field trip! To playtime. KG1B loved playtime! But their favorite station was the sand pit! Teacher Jamie, teacher G.V and P.sim watched in ore as KG1B played silently and and stayed so still! Wow! These little guys can’t sit for 5 minutes without bursting into songs and dances but the Sand put was a WINNER!!!!
We even have some mini race car drivers in our bunch! Driving their motorbikes on the race track! Lena was defiantly out shinning star in this activity!
There was a balloon room that left Daniel and Raafi so overwhelmed with joy they had to have a lye down π hehe
Not forgetting our painting projects! Playtime let us take them back to school. We are all very excited to show out mums and dads our hard work!
After such a hectic week there is not one thing left to say……
TAKE US BACK TO MONDAY!!!!! So we can do it all over again π
