The Butterfly class is going to represent The Netherlands on International Day. This week we started our preparations. We each painted our own Delft Blue vase! Blue Delftware is one of the things The Netherlands is famous for. Visit this website if you want to know more about Delft Blue: http://www.royaldelft.com/index.asp
We have been very busy in the Butterfly class!
Kani and Kausi had their birthday on the 12th of October
Sahej had her birthday on the 27th of October
On the 16th of October we had Future Fun Day
Everybody dressed up as what they want to be in the future
Together with a lot of parents we decorated a rocket ship. And some parents built a launching platform. This theme was base on the idea of our classmate Najib who wants to be an astronaut.
The puzzles are still very popular in our class!
Nadeem is the first person in our class who was able to make a cube out of one of the puzzles. Very well done!
With 5 birthdays October is the party month of the Butterfly Class! This week we had 2 birthdays!
On Thursday we celebrated Uri’s 5th birthday!
And on Friday we celebrated Najib’s 5th birthday! Congratulations!
Last week we have been learning about ordinal numbers in Math class and during Language Arts class we read a lot of books and we learned about our spelling words which all started with the letter ‘s’. Meanwhile our puzzles are still very popular after school!
Last week during Art Class we learned about different flowers that where painted by Van Gogh.
After looking at different paintings by Van Gogh we did a coloring page of the painting ‘Sunflowers’ and we drew some flowers by our selves.
After classes and just before we go home we often have a go at solving very difficult puzzles.
Ahad is one of the students that was able to finish one of these puzzles. Very well done!
In the Butterfly Class we learned about rhyming words and syllables this week and we also studied very hard on our spelling words. During Math we continued focusing on important math concepts like equal to, greater than and less than. In Science class we looked at which tools you can use to do Science. We found out you can use: a measuring cup, a balance, a hand lens, a thermometer and a ruler. During Art Class we learned about the color wheel and we learned that by mixing the primary colors red and yellow you get the secondary color orange. We all started painting our own color wheel:
We painted the yellow part.
We painted the red part.
And we mixed the yellow and red paint to get orange paint and painted the orange part.
Next week the colors purple, blue and green will be added to complete this artwork. To be continued…..
