In the STEAM room this month we have been very busy.
In the block area we have been planning, building, problem solving which has resulted in some great ideas. We have had dens, castles and even a bowling alley.
At the sensory table the favourite activity has been slime . This is great for developing strength in our hands and finger muscles while promoting language “this is stretchy” or cold ,soft, “ look how long it is”. We also had fun with corn starch and water !
As March was world book day the children chose to recreate the Hungry Caterpillar Story. They painted ,glued , decorated and did some mark making which gave us a beautiful wall display.
At the science table we had magnets . The boys and girls discovered what could be lifted by a magnetic force and some items that you were not able to lift “Why”. We also had a look at “magic water” and how it made the pen ink expand we had some lovely rainbows 🌈.
Our art area is always a popular area and the children experience lots of fun learning skills . Fine motor,sensory, design, imagination they enjoy chatting to each other, sharing resources and producing great art works they are very proud of as are we.
Lets spring into April and see some more wonderful creations.
