Hh – House

This week in the Curious Crew class , we enjoyed our daily theme discussions , we spoke about different kind of houses , and we also took the time to discuss the different rooms we get in our homes. We discussed as well what we do in each room and what we can find in those rooms too.

We emphasised that each house is different, in some way or another , and we explained that that’s okay. In our discussion we covered that everyone’s home will have something different to the friend next to us , and we emphasised that it’s not the size of the home it’s the amount of love that’s inside it. We focused quite a lot on our number letter and colour of the week too , practicing rhymes and counting everyday. We took the time and practiced counting and stopping at number 8

For Art this week , we made a very unique , and original Art piece using cereal boxes , cork painting and pictures from magazines . The class used the corks to stamp heads, and they had to do one for each member in their home. We then divided the board into four ( demonstrating rooms) one for kitchen , bedroom , bathroom and lounge. The class had to then page through magazines finding a picture for each room.

We also did a colouring in work sheet of a very messy bedroom. And that the Tidy Up Elf was an Elf that comes to all the messy bedrooms and he starts taking toys one by one and before we know it the tidy up elf has taken all the toys you didn’t want to clean up – so we used this to emphasis the importance of cleaning up your room and after yourself.

Dinosaurs – Under the Soil

Amongst the many different activities we have completed this week, we did a fossil like Pterodactyl made out of pasta. The Crew had to copy the example, planning where to glue next and how many pieces of pasta they would need. It came out really beautifully.

Space

Space

Space is always such an exciting and interesting theme which we can expand so much on. The Crew have a good understanding of space and it was great to go into the finer detail about space. This week our ring times have been extra-long because there is just so much information on space.

Reptiles

For art this week, we decided it would be a cool idea for the Crew to make their own Reptile booklets. We set out a displayed and instructed the children to draw first in black as the outline and then to colour in the pictures they had drawn. These came out so beautifully and we have decided to keep them for Art Expo.
