Dressing up fun!

Today the new dress up box came out for the first time. We had so much fun... have a look at us!

Thank you to everyone would made a contribution to our box.

Using the Digital Camera.

We have been learning how to use the camera. We have taken lots of photos to put in our book to show our progress. Today we took our favourite toys outside and photographed them in the playground. This animoto has some of our photos. We are really doing a great job.

Developmental discoveries.

Junior Developmental Programme

Every Friday morning from 9.00a.m. to 10.30a.m. Rooms 6 & 7 work together for our Developmental programme.

Developmental is an activity-based programme. It provides opportunities for teachers to meet the diverse needs of students through well planned, structured, "hands on" experiences.

This programme provides opportunities for students to direct their own learning, participate in new experiences, encounter new challenges, extend existing skills, work co-operatively, interact socially and problem-solve creatively.

The key competencies. Participating and Contributing, Managing Self,Thinking, Relating to Others, Using language, symbols, and texts become a focus.

If anyone has wood offcuts and nails, dress-ups or costumes, these would be lovely.

We welcome parents, grandparents and family friends to join us during this time.

Extra hands and ideas are always appreciated.

P.M.P.

We have started our Perceptual Motor Programme. This programme is based on balance, body awareness, control and co-ordination. It provides many fundamental skills needed by our junior children.

We have lots of fun as we learn, and each week we change the activities at our five stations. You are welcome to join us on Wednesday at 2.00 p.m. and Thursday at 9.30 a.m.

More Sporting Fun!

Today we played more invasion games with Ryan and Zak. We are learning about protecting our goal, faking a pass, and drawing in a player. It was loads of fun playing 'piggy in the middle'.

Green Hats at work!

We used our creative skills and new found construction techniques to build ROBOTS.

This was just the best Fabulous Friday Fun!

Everyone said "Please can we do this again?"

Construction...

We have been learning how to use different types of glue in our construction work. When we made our pigs we found that we needed to put on our white hats and find out what we knew about pigs. We have a list of interesting facts and now we have displayed them with our perfect, pretty, plump and pink pigs.
