Going on a magic train ride!

Last week, it has been all about trains in KM! The kids loved going on a magic train ride in our cardboard box train. They saw a lot of interesting things and we pretended to go underwater, through a jungle, into space and through a fairyland.

 Lexi "I see crocodile"

 Irene "Look a bird"
 Pailin "I see a slider"

 Lucas "I see alien"
Totem "Look a planet!"
 Harry "I see lighthouse!"

They also did a lot of role playing in class!

 "The whistles blowing - jump aboard!"

We made some binoculars to take on our magic train ride - the kids did this all by themselves using toilet rolls, glue, tape and string. It's great to see them junk modelling. 









Nari and EQ made some trains in the junk modelling area too - using boxes, tissue paper and circle cut outs as wheels. Together, they produced a very impressive looking train!




The blocks were a big hit last week. The boys enjoyed making train tracks, bridges and small buildings. 

 Harry looked at a sample picture and re-created it perfectly - very impressive!

 Lucas built a "space car".

 EQ and Mungkorn made a small farm for our town.

 SunLee and Arthur made a train out of small blocks.

The play dough area was popular for making vehicle parts. 

 Lucy made a "boat".

 Ploen needed some help with shapes, but after looking at the shapes flashcards, she did a fantastic job making vehicle parts!

 Nari made the blades for her helicopter.

 Ploen figured out (by herself) that the boat sail is a triangle shape and it has three sides.
 Totem made a rectangle for the truck's body and circles for the wheels.

As a home activity, please practice the letters 'm' and 'd' with your kids. These videos are quite helpful for them to practice writing:



Have a great week!
