Dear Mead Room
families,
For the past three weeks we have been thrilled to
learn some groovy dance moves with Heidi from ‘Dancify’. All of the Mead Room children have been
exposed to this brilliant incursion, some more than once! It has been a
fantastic experience and we have observed children revisit the songs and dances
which is a testament to Heidi’s fun teaching strategies. Even the teachers got involved!
Preparation for the Nativity has begun in earnest,
please return your RSVP next week. We
have been practicing our Nativity songs for the performance and reading the
story of Christmas;
Harrison T – You know Jesus isn’t always a baby, he grows up and he’s a man.
The children have been mesmerised with the ‘Marble
Run’. There have been many, many opportunities
for the children to work collaboratively, take turns, share prior experience
and consider trial and error.
Loukas – You have to put the pieces together
Angus – the big ones (marbles) get stuck, so you only need the smaller ones
Harrison R – You need it to not be flat, it needs to be like this (Harrison raised
his elbow high, creating an incline with his arm), like a slope.
Lachlan – well I made it with my friends
Have a great weekend,
Melissa and Renee.
