Dear Cooper Room
Families and Friends,
Welcome to the final
week of the Spring Holiday Program.
I would like to thank
Jo (Douglas’ mum) for organising Bambi and Gary (the goats) to visit the Cooper
Room. The children loved chasing, patting and feeding them around the class.
Alonso: Doggy
Lucas: They’re drinking milk
Poppy: Oh no, they’re eating our plants
Archie: So soft
During the week on our
walk to the rainbow playground, the children’s interest sparked when they
noticed sand piles and machinery. The bobcat was scooping up the sand and
transporting it to the school oval.
Lucas: It’s an excavator
Luci: Where are they going to put all the sand?
In the classroom, the
children have taken particular interest in cutting, pasting and collage making.
Cutting encourages children to develop fine motor skills to improve the ability
to use their hand, finger and thumb in a co-ordinated and controlled manner.
Thank you to Miss Beth
for bringing in her Pixie Harp. It was a beautifully carved instrument that
played the most relaxing and calming music. Miss Beth played ABC, Old McDonald,
Twinkle, twinkle little star and the children happily sang along to the songs.
Have a lovely weekend
and see you all next week for a busy Term 4.
Love Miss C and the
Cooper Team
