Jj – Jet

We started off this week, talking about different kinds of land air, and sea transport. We also had so much fun pretending to be different kinds of transport. We spread our arms and were super-fast jets, we made “Choo-Choo” sounds for a train, and we blew our horns to be a big ship.

 The Hoppers were given a page and, with a little help from the teachers, folded the paper to make paper aerorplanes. The aeroplanes were then coloured in to decorate them. Our Hoppers were so excited to go test their paper planes outside in our Hoppers’ garden.  

 For our art we incorporated our shape, colour and transport theme into one masterpiece! We sponge painted a diamond shape piece of paper navy blue, the children were given all different kinds of shapes to make a car, boat and an aeroplane to stick onto the paper and we then turned the diamond into a kite.

Our letter for the week was “J-j” and our letter land book was all about Jumping Jim. We all jumped around the classroom like jumping Jim saying different “J” words. Please ask your Hoppers to tell you some words that start with the letter “J’? This was so much fun, and our Hoppers really impressed us when asked for “J” words.

 Our Hoppers are doing so well in learning the concert songs, we are super proud of them. We cannot wait for concert day. So exciting!

 It has been such a great week!

Trees, Plants, Wood and Paper

We spoke about the different kinds of trees and went on a nature walk, where the children observed leaves and explored the environment around them. They also placed paper against the bark of trees and drew over it to notice the patterns and textures. The children enjoyed feeling the different textures and collecting leaves, branches and bark.

This week we learned about another special topic. All about My Pets. The children started off  this week to a very exciting pet demo where the children had the opportunity to bring their very own pet from home and show their classmates.
