Cooper

Hello Cooper friends and family
 
This week we have been exploring the overhead projector and how it projects shapes and colour onto the wall. The children were fascinated at seeing their hands projected and seeing them grow in size. Next week we will extend on this experience by introducing shadow puppet story telling.
 
We have also been exploring the outdoor yard for shadows. Once we had located them the children experimented with the different things that they could get their shadow to do. We discovered that shadows can dance, run, walk and jump. We also discovered that our shadows can overlap when we're standing near another person. 
 
Have a great weekend!
Jain & Cris
