Once again the four hour class spent some time in the classroom using our old favourite toys:
Mayu matched shapes
Weston made a colourful mosaic
And Domenic used the blocks to build "Darth Vader"
We also tried some new things this week:
Cooking Spring Rolls with Yvette
For more details, check out the bulletin board in the hallway!
Paulik Park
Having snack
Collecting sticks for art
Ashton found a hole where "a troll lives"
We did lots of climbing!
And sliding!
Dominic learned how to go down the spiral all by himself!
Walking back to the bus.
Big Blob
We made space mud and decided to call it "Big Blob"
Putting the ingredients together
Mixing it all up
Playing!!!
Weston was "cutting up some peppers"
As you can imagine, Big Blob was a source of ALOT of comments and conversation.
How does it smell?
Ashton: Yummy! It smells like a cookie baking!
How does it feel?
Dominic: It's flat and gooey. It feels good!
Justin: Gooey - AH! Gooey - AH! It's cold!
Dominic: It's really gross - it's like pizza.
What are you making?
Ashton: a drum
Dominic: a blueprint
Justin: a handprint and a bouncy ball
Adam: strawberry, salty bread
The Turf Field and the Gym
It was raining quite a bit on Friday so we decided to stay at West -
That didn't stop us from getting our exercise!
Running
Bear walks
Riding bikes in the gym
Some New Toys
The cash register
Foam stacking
A Bug puzzle
The Lego Table
And the children did alot of art - we opened a free art table:
But they were more interested in drawing Ninja Turtles:
Justin is drawing Michaelangelo
Ashton drew Leonardo - with his swords
Justin also drew Leonardo
And Domenic drew Michaelangelo eating a banana
This is Justin's finished collection which includes all four turtles and Shredder!
What an wonderful, eventful week! I am excited to find out what the next week has in store for us!
Thanks everyone,
Nicole
