It has been a great successful week in the Curious Crew class! The Crew are so comfortable in there new environment and are all enjoy coming to school with very few tears. We had a great learning week with our theme having so much to discuss regarding our bodies and learning about important body parts like our hearts , lungs , kidneys etc .

We did quite a few art activities this week. Teacher Clarissa really thought of a fun and exciting way to explain the components of blood using a plastic bottle and

  • Red Orbeez for blood
  • Red plastic for red blood cells
  • Polystyrene balls for white blood cells
  • Yellow food colouring in water for Plasma

This week we focused on tracing and practicing our name writing , as well as our cutting skills , this is something that will be a main focus throughout the week.

Helpful tips of the week: The most important rule in our class is to ‘Keep your hands to yourself’ (Our action for this, when telling the Crew, is giving themselves a hug). As much fun as it is to hang on to and hold our friends, most of the time it ends up in tears rather than smiles. If you as parents could please chat to your children at home about this rule and respecting their friends’ personal space, class time and playtime will run much smoother.

Next week’s theme: My senses

As we approach the holidays it was very interesting to hear where all the Crew would like to go. There was Scotland, Cape Town, the Bird and Monkey Park, Durban, Kenya, South America, the Kruger, and a few kids want to go to Sun City. I think the Crew are more than ready for their December holidays.
