Langley

Dear Langley Families and Friends,

This week we have focused on number recognition, during group times we spoke about the numbers familiar to us and practiced the numbers we didn’t know. We did this by sorting and matching together as a group.

The last few weeks we have been very interested in talking about bodies, we have been on a journey which most recently has lead us to tracing our friend Mack’s body and exploring what we do already know.
Rocco – “That’s a hand.”
Mack  - “Mack has toes.”
Linda  - “1, 2, 3, 4, 5 finger.”
Alannah – “We have arms and elbows.”

This Friday the 26th of February was National Red Balloon Day, a day we take a moment to remember and thank the Fire Fighters for protecting and saving our world. We painted our very own fire truck, red stories and had discussions.
Linda – “It’s a car fire truck.”
James – “It’s a fire truck, it comes on Wednesday with the garbage truck. Goo-ba-goo-ba-goo.”
Angus – “Put out the fire, hose.”

Miss Renee will be away next week as she is holidaying in Bali.

Have a fantastic and safe weekend,
Brooke, Jennifer, Sarah and Emily.
