Dear Mattingley families and friends,
Welcome to the second week of our winter program. The children have
continued their interests in painting, construction, cutting and gluing with
natural materials.
The children used their fine motor skills to dip alphabet sponges into
coloured paints and print the letters onto paper to create the imprints of
different letters of the alphabet. The children recognised letters in their own
names and each other’s. They also sounded out the letters as they sponged them
onto paper and shared their thoughts with each other.
I used the letter X. Kaeshav
My letter is R. Riani
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, yellow. Hridhaan
I’m using R. Sofia
E is in my name. Didier
On Tuesday, we walked up to the big boy's school and had so much fun
playing on the rainbow playground. The children explored different areas of the
playground, climbing on the equipment, swinging on the swings and playing hide
and seek.
The children have really enjoyed sharing their family photos in the
classroom and creating new friendships, singing, dancing, playing ‘bug in a
rug’ at group time, sandpit play and looking at the insects at the light table.
Next Friday, the 21st of July is Pyjama Day. Come dressed in
your comfy pyjama’s!
Hope you have a lovely weekend.
Liana and Kendall
