This week saw the last week of our ARC visits. We were visited by two ARC volunteers and two rescue dogs called Sukhi and Luka. The children put into practice what they had learnt with Mr Peter and Ms Koto. Most children wanted to stroke the dog and did so very gently. The children's interest in pets has led to a change in our role-play area. It is now a Vet's clinic.
Around the classroom, the children have been playing with a mixture of shaving foam and cornflour as well as basil seeds gloop. We have also been focusing on scissor skills and counting. The children enjoyed using a new resource this week. We have six new mobile phones which the children have been taking turns to use. We have heard some very funny conversations!
In the main playground we have been playing parachute games and catching and throwing the ball. The children have been practising skipping and balancing.
We have a new display in the classroom based on 'Handa's Surprise'. Ms Francez has been working with the children on this. Please have a look on Monday!
Today is Ms Francez's last day at TX. It has been a pleasure to have her here in F2. Thank you for all your hard work with the children and all the wonderful learning you have inspired. We will miss you!
