Joshua and Benjamin’s band – Great singing boys, we all enjoyed your version of ‘ I’m still standing’. The boys are really enjoying our music area especially our microphones.

 

 

Megan and Hamish – Using our hand made piano (made by the children from boxes) to play us a tune.  Great imagination used to sing along to pretend music.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are learning to write.

Nico is showing an interest in forming letters from his name, by exploring different mark making opportunities.

 

 

We have been very busy here at Williamsburgh Early Learning and Childcare Class, using the children’s suggestions and ideas to make changes to our Learning Environment.  What do you think of our changes?  We would welcome any feedback /suggestions of how we can further develop our zones.  The staff and children have been working very hard to rezone our rooms and the outside area along with some of our parents. These changes will enhance the environment for our young learners.

Thank you to all who attended our Stay and Play Week, we hope you enjoyed seeing all that goes on and were able to participate in some of the experiences.
