Vinnie’s The Purple Hearts Week 6 Term 2

Hi all,

We are travelling well at school. The children have been enjoying some shared time with the preschool – we watched the wonderful Abi Tucker’s latest episode with Play School. We also walked up to Kimberly Playground and spent time playing on the equipment and the swings. It was wonderful seeing the children playing together.

Sadly, even with our research and purchase of a heat mat to support our Silk Worms; they have all died. We tried leaving signs and asking the cleaners to leave the Heat Mat plugged in, however, it didn’t work. We have agreed to hold off on new Silk Worms while the weather is still cold. We will revisit our class pet options next term.

We are excited to have Dee, offering some Yoga classes Thursday morning from 9 am. The majority of our class will join with some teachers and children from other classes showing interest too.

We have introduced some new camera words and another set of sounds into our phonics activities. We will begin blending our sounds and words to read sentences this coming week. In the craft room this last week we have been doing some Tie Dye T-shirts as well as some collages. We have begun looking at groups of objects and making equal and unequal groups.

We will have a short week next week. I hope you have a restful break and see you Tuesday!

Vinnie
