More clatch today!

We made moon sand with 4 cups of sand, 2 cups of cornflour, some water and lots of gold glitter.

We dressed up and played at being firefighters after the toy dragon set the pirate ship alight. Joey discovered the fire extinguisher could be filled with water and everyone had a good time squirting it. We set the timer on the iPad to help us take turns.

 

Some of the other dressing up clothes were used today too.

We are still enjoying working together to make tall towers.

We looked at the colours and number patterns on the dominoes.

Ball balancing!

Joy was back for some more African drumming.

Video of our drumming:

We danced like different African animals.

“I’m painting a picture for Mam.”

We added water to the sandpit to make a “muddy puddle” for the truck to go in.

We chose whether to do show and tell or go up to the garden today.

Monkeys in a tree (complete with sound effects).

Turn taking at being the ice cream seller. Lots of flavours, including melon and chocolate chip!

 

REMINDER – The play van is here from 10-12 tomorrow, all under fives welcome.

Friday 15th September

A noisy, busy day today.

.

“It’s a new Holland.”

We went to Edinburgh and Shetland.

“Yucky goo.”

We found 3 slugs and lots of slaters.

Discussing where the eye should go on Elmer. Up, up, up!

That’s  it!

A pet picnic.

We planted up our avocado.

Mixing, filling, pouring and banging.

Dressing up.

Stories and rhymes and puzzles.

Drawing and colouring.

Playing in the fire station.

Cleaning the tray after the aqua beads were emptied.

 

Very noisy learning. We noticed if we banged the table the rice moved. We moved it right into the middle of the table. Someone was watching closely, “it’s jumping.”

Lots of taking turns and sharing to finish off our morning.
