Dear Families and friends,
Welcome to your first Autumn program in the three year old
room! We hope that you all had a lovely Easter, we heard that the Easter
bunny visited all of the children and they have been enjoying chocolate for
breakfast! We made chocolate pasta necklaces, explored chocolate playdough and
made chocolate cakes.
The children have also noticed that the weather has changed
and so is the environment around them.
Sophie - I found yellow and red leaves.
Isaac - Because it's Autumn, it means the leaves change colour.
Wolf - The leaves comes out of the trees next to my pool and fall
in the pool!
Isla - They might fall on my house and they might bump my head.
The children have been walking around the ELC garden and the
school grounds to look at the changes in trees. We created a tree in the
classroom to make it fit in with the Autumn colours, have painted trees
and cut out leaves. The children have continued to care for the class
frogs and caterpillars, if you look really carefully you will see we have two
chrysalises now as our other caterpillar changed into a beautiful butterfly ! Kennedy named her 'Flower' and we set her free back into nature.
The children
have been asking to wash Miss Bowden's car for weeks, so with the cold weather
coming we thought now would be a great time. And we ended our program
with an exercise class to keep our bodies healthy and warm.
Monday will be another Autumn program day with term commencing on
Tuesday, see you then!
Love Miss Bowden, Mrs Kerr and Ms W.
