Dear Edgerley Parents and
Friends,
We have enjoyed a really lovely
first week together. All children have settled in beautifully and are enjoying
all the activities, songs, games and discussions in Edgerley. We have begun to
explore our new Unit of Inquiry ‘Noisemakers’ by experimenting with glass jars,
plastic containers and various sized tins and partially filled them with
different materials to make interesting sounds. During Chinese lessons we
created our very own orchestra complete with jar rattlers, wooden block bangers,
stompers, pencil tin shakers and clickers! What a fabulous noise we made!
We would love some parent participation and we invite
you to come and share your expertise by making some noise for us! Do you play
an instrument? Are you able to use your body to make some interesting noises?
Do you have something from home that can make different sounds (e.g. a power
tool or kitchen appliance)? It could be anything! Please let us know if you are
able to come in! it doesn’t even have to sound nice!
Thank you all for stopping by,
introducing yourselves and getting to know the classroom and our routines.
Looking forward to another
fabulous week next week!
Coney, Juliana and Katherine
