Dear Langley family and friends,
What a busy week we have had in the Langley room. Inside we have enjoyed watching our silk worms make cocoons, some of us have also drawn silk worms on paper and practised our cutting skills, cutting leaves and then painting silk worms onto them.
What a busy week we have had in the Langley room. Inside we have enjoyed watching our silk worms make cocoons, some of us have also drawn silk worms on paper and practised our cutting skills, cutting leaves and then painting silk worms onto them.
We have also been practising our fine motor
skills by making different vehicles with the Mobilo, cooking up a storm in our
restaurant and matching different shapes onto outlines.
We have taken advantage of this beautiful
weather this week. Outside we have had fun driving cars down long cardboard
tubes and watching where they come out, catching and blowing bubbles and lots
of water play but one of our highlights would have to be a walk to the oval at
the big school.
Whilst there we did some running races and
used up some of our energy running to where Miss Emily and Miss Kerry were
standing. We were also lucky enough to see Mr Ty drive a tractor up onto the
oval. We were all so eager to have a closer look that we went to investigate.
"It has lights," David noticed as
we got closer to the tractor
"What's that?" Angelina asked
pointing to the tractor
"Its a big scoop," Mr Ty explained
to the children
"What are you doing?" Miss Kerry
asked Mr Ty
"picking up big logs from behind the boarding
house," Mr Ty told us
"wheel, little one," David said
pointing to the different sized wheels
Mr Ty then got into the tractor started it up
and showed us how the scoop can move up and down
"It's smoke," Angelina said pointing
to the smoke coming from the tractor
"Can you do it again Mr Ty?"
Lachlan asked
Mr Ty explained some of the parts of the
tractor before going back to work. We then made our way back to the ELC.
We have all been doing a fantastic job
practising our songs for the Nativity. We are getting really good and hope you
will all be there to see us perform.
Jess, Nicole, Kerry, Emily and Adele
