We've carried on with the bird theme and some of the children have begun making birds out of plasticine. We are talking about the difference between 2D and 3D objects and they have been working on making their birds round and 3D. We are awed by their observation skills!
Thank you for your donations to the "12 Days of Giving", and thanks as well for having your children so well dressed for the cold and snowy weather. Today we enjoyed a walk to see if the river was frozen. We also made predictions and tried various ways to break the ice (throwing different sticks and rock).
Some updates and info:
- Tomorrow our class is having a p.j. day. and it's also festive sweater day, so we told the students they can wear festive sweaters, pyjamas, or combine the two by wearing festive (winter / Christmas) pyjamas!
- Next Monday the whole school is having a pyjama day!
- Wednesday, Dec. 20th we're having our snowman walk/run. Students need to bring a labelled mug if they want hot chocolate.
- The children can keep the fire helmets that they brought home (we were given them at the fire station).
