Last week we had so much fun! We started off the week by discussing the importance of health and hygiene. We demonstrated to the children how far a sneeze can travel if you don’t cover your mouth. We also did an experiment with three pieces of bread. One piece of bread that wasn’t touched by anyone, one piece of bread that was touched by everyone and one piece of bread that we sprayed with sanitizer. We observed how the touched piece of bread full of germs grew the most mould on it.

The first group of Crew had lots of fun making their very own soap with teacher Clarissa while the others worked on their ‘I brushed my teeth!’ worksheet which they completed so well!

One of our favourite activities this week was creating a germ! The children had so much fun creating it with strips of paper and glue. The little germs were all so cute!

We did various other activities that just showed us teachers how clever these children are! We are super proud of how they are absorbing everything we are teaching them!

Below are two of the poems we did last week, please repeat them at home to see how much of it your clever little ones know! We are sure they will actually be surprised if they hear you saying them too!

This week’s theme: Valentine’s Day and Emotions.

Have a wonderful week!

 

The Green Poem!

Green is the grass,

String beans and peas.

Green are the branches on a Christmas tree.

Father’s Day and Sport

What an exciting week we’ve had in the Curious Crew class, especially leading up to the much-anticipated Bike-a-thon! The kids were counting down the days, asking daily if it was finally Bike-o-thon time. Today was no different, “When are we going to ride, teacher?” “Is it now?”—the questions didn’t stop! The big event finally took place after snack time during our break, and it was pure joy.

Land, Air and Sea Transport

Land, Air and Sea Transport

During ring time each morning, we encouraged the Crew to include transport in their sentences when discussing different types of vehicles. Our goal was for them to grasp what “transport” really means—not just naming cars, trucks, planes, and boats, but understanding why we use them.

The Farm: Farm Animals

This week, we explored the fascinating world of farm animals! We learned about the animals themselves, the sounds they make, the names of their babies, and even which meats come from which animals. We also discussed the many products animals give us — from milk, cheese, and yogurt to wool, feathers, and eggs.
