Edgerley Room

Dear Edgerley Families and Friends,

The Edgerley children have become quite environmentally aware – thanks to you and the connections we are making between what we are discovering in the ELC and what we are doing at home. Thank you all for your valuable input into helping your child understand what you do at your homes to help our environment. Our show and tell times this week were a real highlight and we loved looking at the posters and listening to all your ideas and advice.

We have enjoyed making music from recycled plastic containers and glass jars and bottles. Cooper, Toby and Angus could be heard having a chat, although just barely!
“Make it louder! Try to practice it! So loud the music!!” yelled Cooper, encouraging his mates Toby and Angus.
“Doesn’t sound like music to me, just sounds like noise,” Angus contradicted.
Toby added, “The noise ones are loud!”

“We’re going to build music. You gotta practice making the loud noise,” Cooper pointed to the musical notes and the scores on the wall. “Make it louder!”

The boys were in full swing when Angus interrupted, “Stop the music! Slow, slow, slow, slow, slow down.”
Toby piped in, “Would you like to hear this music? C’mon keep making it!”
“We’ve gotta mix up the music,” again Cooper encouraged his friends.
Angus wanted to try something new, “I’m using beans to make it loud.”

Cooper pointed to the score again, “We’re on the number 3 one now. It’s sounds awesome to me.”

Please come in and make some music! We would love to hear it.

This week we excitedly look forward to visiting the Rubbish Dump where we hope to discover more and more about the world of rubbish and how we can help make our world a cleaner place.
