Dear Edgerley Families,
Another jam packed week in the
Edgerley Room ! Whoever would have thought we’d end up using our Rubbish Show
and Tell to make a Rubbish Castle? It’s just lovely – complete with sparkles,
exits for the King and Queen and even a turret!
“It needs decoration. It’s just a
Rubbish Castle. It needs sparkles. You don’t want it to be an ugly witches
castle,” Lily was determined to make it a very beautiful castle.
We have been learning a lot about
leaves and why some leaves are brown and some are green. Some even have green
bits AND brown bits.
Fletcher explained to us, “The
green ones are bendy because all their connects are filled with water. They are
stronger because of the water. The brown ones are dead. They don’t have any
more water left.”
“It’s alive cause it’s bendy. It
can bend,” Max exclaimed.
Thanks Archie for bringing in
your wasp for us to look at under the microscope! We have also been looking at
plankton, flower stem cells, bug antennae and fabrics. Do you have anything
interesting at home that we could observe?
Mrs Bishop and her gorgeous
daughter Chloe came to visit us!! Chloe is adorable and Mrs Bishop just loves
being a mum! Chloe can’t stand up yet, but she can poke her tongue out – what a
clever girl!
Next week promises to be a very
exciting week as we begin experiments with beans, use natural resources to make
stick people, learn about Aboriginal bark painting and write our own books
about Jack and the Beanstalk! It’s all very exciting in Edgerley!
Next week Mrs Rocca will be using eggs shells with the
children to make some fabulous ‘Egg Shell Mosaics’! Please bring in a drained, clean and dry egg shell in a named sandwich
bag and place (carefully!!) in the box on top of the lockers. Don’t worry
if the egg shell is already cracked!
(Don't forget our parent information session on Tuesday 4pm)
See you all very soon!
Juliana, Coney and Katherine
