Goldilocks and three bears - home activity 27/10/15

This week, KM has started reading Goldilocks and the three bears. The children have been very interested in the story! The book focusses on size - so, I would like the kids to try out some size ordering at home. Perhaps they can find similar items around the house and order them by size. Point at items such as chairs, beds, bowls, cups and ask them to tell you which one is the biggest/smallest. By doing so, they will develop a stronger awareness of size and comparatives/superlatives.

Here are some pictures of the children enjoying their first day of the 'Goldilocks' story. 

 Lucy mad a bowl of porridge for the baby bear.

 Mayumi made a bowl for pappa bear.

 Lexie and SunLee built a house for the baby bear.

 Nari pretented to be Goldilocks eating her porridge.

 Mayumi remembered the three bowls of porridge from the story and re-enacted it while making play dough bowls.

Halloween fun!!

Hi parents,

I hope you had a lovely holiday with your kids!

This week, the children are very excited about Halloween! So, we've been doing some arts and crafts to decorate our classroom for Friday. We started off making some pumpkin shapes using apples - the kids were very interested to see that when you cut an apple in half it makes the shape of a pumpkin.

 We also did some monster making and built haunted houses!

 We also made some very funny looking pumpkins!

Some children really wanted to paint bats!

While some others made a creepy witches soup!! 

I will put up more pictures once all the decorations have gone up - the kids are very excited to see all their hard work put into use :)
