Sharing the planet - UOI We have been inquiring into living things, as Arts Week is coming we have chosen art projects to showcase this. Preschool students created beautiful living things-inspired art pieces with the help of their G3 buddies. They chose an animal, glued natural materials on the animal template and painted a background. Here's the process: Final Art Pieces are displayed on the hallway of the Drama and Music rooms. Mathematics - Measurement We have been focusing on comparing and measuring things. With the help of this interesting book entitled 'ACTUAL SIZE' by Steve Jenkins, the students were able to compare and understand how to measure using unifix cubes. They enjoyed comparing their body parts to the actual size of different animals on the book. Then they later measured the hand of the gorilla using unifix cubes and compared to their own hands. Learning outcomes:
Show and Tell - Sharing the Planet Melissa brought in her big poster with the photos of her cousin's horses. She showed and explained to us how she enjoyed riding a pony and how she helped to take care of it. Line of Inquiry: How we care for living things Attitude: Confidence, commitment Learner Profile: Communicator, risk taker ART SALE AND AUCTION ON FRIDAY, 3RD OF JUNE Each Preschool class beautifully decorated a mirror using a range of techniques. The students mixed colours and painted each piece of wood. Some they decorated using their own unique colours and designs and on one they each carefully wrote their name. A wonderful memory for years to come of the friendships they made in Preschool. (This was posted last week on our homepage.) Wheel's Day Fun
