Snow painting

After watching Rise of the Guardians, we decided to wave our magic paintbrushes like Jack Frost and spread snow and ice on pages.They turned out lovely and icy looking!

Playing claves with Marsha

Marsha is back with us on Thursdays for more lovely music lessons.She does wonderful songs and games with us ,and brings us instruments to play.We all played claves with her recently.

Is it waterproof?

We tested a rubber glove, a plastic bag,swimming togs ,socks and  a paper bag to see if they were waterproof.We found out rubber was the most waterproof material.

Penguins

This month,we have been learning about penguins,polar bears ,seals and snowy owls.
We had great fun learning about penguins and how the daddy penguin keeps the egg warm until it hatches,and mammy penguin goes off hunting for fish.We also read a story called Penguins In The Fridge about a boy who keeps making penguins out of cardboard and fills up his fridge!

The children were fascinated by regurgitation - the mammy regurgitates fish to feed to the baby...

 

Rice krispie buns !

As a reward for getting ten compliments from Teacher,the children had a rice krispie bun party before Christmas.Yum!
