During language time, the primary students made edible ladybugs out of grapes and strawberries. focusing on following directions and reinforcing the concepts of living things and insects. Small group work focused on describing, listening, following directions and asking clarifying questions.
This week in the social club we played some exciting group games to promote socialization and team work. We played "Diener Diner" which allowed the kids to practice asking questions ("What can I get for you? Would you like some tea or coffee? How many eggs do you want?" etc...) and follow directions. We also watched clips of "Bee Movie" to get inspired for our Bee puppet show we will be putting on!
We took some time to really appreciate nature this week in the Art Club. We investigated and scowered the playground for natural beauty. After collecting different items (leaves, sticks, rocks, mud...) we came back inside and the kids made Art from Nature. Their work will be displayed in the science room.
Primary students designed festive arts-n-crafts activities focusing on folding, scissor, and handwriting skills. They also participated in their weekly motor group practicing their body awareness skills, moving their fingers, noses, and toes to the rhythm!
Ms. Jenni's inters class did a great job during their weekly handwriting group, working on forming compound words and formulating their very own silly sentences!
This week the students participated in a few Mother's Day craft projects. In addition, we continue to work on completing our end of the year assessments. It has been so exciting to see all the progress!
In science, we started talking about Life Cycles by discussing the differences between living and non living things. The primary and inters classes did a fun sorting and coloring activity. The uppers worked on comparing and contrasting real worms and gummy worms. Next week, we will focus on our new classroom pets and start constructing our terrariums!
