Dear Friends of the Cooper Room,
This week we investigated our skeleton!
We wanted to see what we looked like on the inside.
“Bones keep us strong, bones help our body to move,” said
the children as they looked closely at our class skeleton. Using dried pasta
the children have created an image of their skeleton on card, others have tried
to paint the bones they can feel under their skin. Many of the
children have taught us the name of different bones – “the skull is our head
bone,” said Domenic and “we have a funny bone too!” added Luca. On Friday we
began singing the old favourite “Dem Bones” as we learnt how all the bones work
together to make us move.
We also spent time drawing our self-portraits –
what we look like on the outside! It is interesting to see the way the children
are developing their observation skills and starting to add more details and
expression to their faces. Come in and see your Cooper gallery!
