Dear
Cooper families,
We
have had a lovely and busy week in the Cooper room. We have continued our
exploration of our Unit of Inquiry into Marvellous Machines. We have had a
particular focus on household machines which lead us to have some cooking
experiences in the classroom. We made some delicious strawberry and banana
milkshakes using Miss C’s blender. They were delicious!
Identifying
different colours and creating new colours has been of particular interest in
the class this week. Many children have asked what happens when you mix colours
together such as “red and white” or “blue and red”. This promoted us to have a
colour mixing sensory experiment. We filled trays with shaving cream and added
two primary colours to the cream. The children were then able to mix the cream
and colours together using their hands to find out what colour they made. The
children loved squishing the cream between their fingers. It was a wonderful
sensory experience.
Please
remember all children need to have their hat by Monday the 14th of
September.
Enjoy
the beautiful weather!
Love
Miss Gilbert and Miss C
