This week we learned all about winter and different temperatures, hot and cold as well as some fire safety.

We started off this very chilly week with some action songs to get our bodies warmed up. 

For Numeracy we traced the number 8 and drew it in the sand. We practiced counting to 20 every day and used unifix cubes to count.

We had two art pieces this week. We made a snowflake out of salt, and we made a special art piece for Art expo. 

The Hoppers got to experiment with some ice! They each got a chance to put a few drops of food colouring into water in an an ice tray. We waited for it to freeze and then each child got a chance to draw with their different colour ice.

They really enjoyed this activity! We went on one of our favourite class activities, a nature walk and collected sticks for our art piece. We had fabulous FunFit sports with Coach Trevor, where the children did T ball batting and practiced catching and throwing. 

To end a very productive week we had yay for yoga! 

Enjoy your Mid term break with your little ones and see you on the 6th of July! Stay warm.
