Cooper


Dear Parents and Friends of the Cooper Room,

What a fun week we have shared talking about all the different homes animals have. As we have read books the children have taken note of the animals and their environments. We have also looked at pictures and tried to create some amazing spider webs, nests and now a whole animal world with a special dark cave for the bats, birds and bears to live. Take the time to crawl in if you dare!!!

The children have continued their search outside for bugs, slugs, worms and snails. The children have found these creatures like to live in really tight small spaces and away from the light.

“They like to hide,” said Alexander

“We might find some here under this log cos’ it’s really a good home for slugs,” announced Toby

“Let’s try under the leaves. The snails go in there and eat the leaves,” Luca

“Hey here is the dirt. Will a worm be here?” asked Zander

 

Next week we will continue to study our slugs and bugs and try to find out a little more about them. Please search our gardens – we would love some snails, worms and slugs to take a closer look.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend – keep an eye out for these snails!
Susan, Jain, Rosalie and Yvonne
