Dear Angwin Parents and Friends,
We’ve had a very eeeeeventful and eeeeexciting week in
Angwin. We introduced the Ee sound and have had so much fun eeeexploring the
many words that begin with this letter. The most fun of all was reading the
story of Elmer and then making our very own Elmer elephant for the classroom.
We traced it onto some paper using the overhead projector and used our bodies
to further explore shadows and light. Then we all helped to paste coloured squares
onto the elephant. The following day we painted the other side in grey- to look
like all the ordinary elephants. We also made smaller Elmer elephants and
practised writing the letter Ee. We have also explored the story of Horton
Hatches an Egg and plan to make Green Eggs and Ham next week, when we will
introduce the letter Hh. This has all created a further interest in jungles and
jungle animals. Watch our room transform over the next couple of weeks!
Thank you,
Angwin Team
