Good morning Pink Class – how are you all today?

Let’s wake up! What day is it today?

Calendar –

Wow, it’s the last day in April today. What month will tomorrow be?

Let’s remind ourselves with one of our months of the year song.

It’s May tomorrow! How many days are there in May?

Movement –

What does Pedro and Gerry have planned for movement today?

Life Skills –

Could you do some dusting today?

Maths –

Let’s use some of those seeds you have gathered –

• count the seeds, how many do you have?
• how many ways can you sort the seeds (think of colour, size, shape)?
• make a symmetrical picture with the seeds
• make shapes and patterns with the seeds
• order your seeds by size (smallest to largest or largest to smallest)

Fiddly Fingers –

Can you thread to make a daisy or flower chain. I used to love doing this when I was a wee girl!

Story –

Let’s enjoy some more plants stories.

Here is one of my favourite stories from when I was a wee girl….. all about a princess and a pea!

Did you like these stories?

Signs of the Day –

What will Lorna be teaching us today?

Music –

Pop over to the music section, what does Connie have planned? It’s singalong today too! Yippee!

Sensory –

Another thing I liked to do when I was a little girl was to make ‘perfumes and potions’.

Here’s how you do it:

You need a small plastic cup or a jar and a stick.

Now you need to collect some potion ingredients such as little pieces of herbs, leaves, grass,  earth or flowers.

Put your ingredients in your cup or jar, add a little water and stir.

You have made a perfume or potion, you decide.

Try smelling it with your eyes closed. What can you smell?

Who in your family can make the nicest perfume or the smelliest potion?

Give your perfume or potion a name!

Dance –

What does Rachel have planned for you? Have a look!

Challenge of the Day –

Watch how different insects and birds fly.

Try to follow some of them. How do they move? Do they move in a straight line?

Have a fun Thursday Pink Class!
