4 Hour Class - Doing What We Do Best- PLAYing!

We spent most of class last week in the centre. But nonetheless we still enjoyed playing with the toys.

Adam and Dominic worked together to make a pizza.

Mayu helped them by flattening the dough.

Erik gently holds the snowman that he made.

Weston loved the smell of the purple play dough. “It smells like grape”.

Noa used the bridge to get the giraffe across the water.

Ashton helped Noa get most of the animals across the bridge.

Justin and Clayten were busy making spaceships at the Lego table.

Domenic and Matthew got creative in making new animals.

Erik read Superman and Bizarro to his friends.

Ella, Justin and Clayten built cars with the flower blocks.

Ashton and Domenic worked together to complete the tree puzzle.

Adam and Matthew got their creative juices flowing at the art table. Noa held the watercolor for Matthew to help him paint better.

Weston and Ashton worked together to get the gears moving.

They all dug together to make a big hole under the rock.

Weston gave Clayten a free ride in the gym.

Playing is fun! But it is more fun when it is shared with our friends!

Andrew noted that they can walk in the water because they are wearing their boots. Sara replied with “our feet won't get wet”. Adonis was watching the other children walk in the water.

Alvis was wearing his boots so he was able to be in “the river”. They speculated about the size of the splash on

Oil, Water & Food Colouring - 4 Year Old Class

The children experimented with oil, water, food colouring and pipettes this morning. They squeezed drops of coloured water into a layer of oil and were engaged for a very long while. This is a simple activity with an intriguing effect. Irena gently and carefully shook the tray back and forth, blending colours. Roan watched a small drop rolling up and down the pipette. Daniel said “The circle drop is getting bigger and darker. It's dark green and red and purple.” Charlie seemed intrigued while watching water move up and down the pipette as he squeezes the bottom. Lucas thoughtfully puts the strips of paper from a weaving activity in order, and then begins threading the strips through. A very time consuming activity. While Lucas was having snack, Tiffany and Cara decide to take over where he left off. Lucas comes over to check out the progress. Lucas, while looking at the completed activity said “Cool, the g
