Langley

Another busy week in the Langley room!

On Monday we were visited by Erin from Dancify. She taught us some groovy new dance moves and actions to different songs. This was a great experience to foster children's body awareness and physical wellbeing - not to mention, lots of fun too!

On Tuesday Phoebe, Mack, Leo and William. A visited the library. It was quite a walk up to the Prep School but the small group enjoyed stories from Mr Coleman and going through his collection of soft toys and puppets.
   
We've also been doing magic paintings this week! First children needed to draw with a white crayon, then paint over it with water paints. They were sometimes perplexed as to why they couldn't see their drawing at first, but then were excited to see the 'magic' happen with the paint.

Before – “I draw and draw and it wasn’t working. It was broken. Um drawing some hills and the rain and the sun shine. A big one”
After – “I’ll show you….see….there’s the rain”
Sebastian A 
Before – “I’m drawing a racing car but it’s see through wait for me to paint”
After – “See now you can see the race track”
    
Finally, could we please have donations of milk cartons as we are hoping to create some construction projects with them. Thank you

Have a great weekend
