Let's go to space!

Wow what a week we had! The kids loved our space theme and they have already gained a lot of knowledge on the solar system, space and rocket/space ships! I'm sure you have noticed a lot of new words being used, at home.

The kids enjoyed pretending to be inside the rocket that we made for them! 3-2-1 -blast offfffff!!!!!

They also had a lot of fun role-playing driving a rocket and pretending to be in space!

 We walked on pillows pretending we were on the moon. 

 Ploen reminded EQ that he had to wear a helmet before going into space, or he cannot breathe!

The kids enjoyed making space helmets! They learned that people need to wear helmets in space so that they have air to breathe.

We also learnt about star constellations and practiced making shapes and some kids even tried to make their names into star constellations!

We started learning about the solar system last week and plan to do more on it, this week.

The kids already know some of the names and properties of the planets in our solar system. Have a look at this video, with them, and practice the names and properties again.

Thank you to the parents who have sent in photos of their kids doing homework! It's so nice to see that they are taking home what they learn in school :)
