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.

Me and My Body

Me and My Body

he Crew discovered some fun facts, like how their fist is about the same size as their stomach or heart, and two fists together equal the size of their brain. We discussed the stomach and small intestines and the important roles they play. The Crew now knows that our lungs breathe in oxygen, which our organs and muscles need, and that the heart, a muscle itself, pumps blood throughout the body. They also learned that the brain controls everything—from moving our arms and legs to things we don’t even think about!

Travel and Holidays

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.
