EASTER EGG HUNT TODAY! 28/03/18

Today we had fun with our Easter Egg Hunt outside in the yard and backyard. It was all about ICT

and working together. We work in team and we used the IPad to scan different colorful eggs we found in the yard and following the clues we found a basket with chocolate cake made by one of our teacher and eggs made with beads that the Sunflowers made for us!

Lpfö: Feel a sense of participation in their own culture and develop a feeling and respect for other cultures.

Develop their curiosity and enjoyment.

Tulips

This week the tulips got to visit the pirate park! It’s been a while since they have visited the pirate park thus our tulips were very much so excited to explore the pirate boat/house.

Lpfo: develop their motor skills. Ability to coordinate, awareness of their own body as well as the importance of maintaining their own health and well-being.

Sunflowers

The Sunflowers were fascinated by VR and AR so we researched together and found AR Cards that we can make ourselves! Sunflowers printed the right PDF from an iPad, cut the cards out, prepared laminating sheets and laminated them. They are ready for everyone to use, they really enjoyed trying out something more advanced technology-wise that they made themselves! Way to go, sunflowers!

Lpfö:
• develop their ability to identify technology in everyday life, and explore how simple technology works

Lilies

The Lilies had their weekly Zumba class, practising directions, rhythm, balance and listening skills. They worked on their gross motor skills, practising walking stiff, wobbly, high, low, fast, slow.

Lpfö: develop their motor skills. Ability to co-ordinate, awareness of their own body, as well as an understanding of the importance of maintaining their own health and well being

Tulips

The Tulips got to go to the supermarket to recycle! They got to recycle empty cans and plastic bottles and after they finished they got to use the recycling money to buy fruits of their choosing! Happy Days!

Today the Tulips got to enjoy an eventful day. One of the things they got to do today is play the piano! Below is a picture of our two up and coming superstars showing us their skills!

Lpfo: develop their creative abilities and the ability to convey impressions, thoughts and experiences in many different forms, such as play, pictures, song and music, dance and drama.

Maths and IT Day 

Lilies work with shapes, numbers, patterns, sizes and they do adding using different little toys…
The 7th of March is “The International Maths Day”. In the morning we made crafts recycling colorful sheets of paper cut into all the shapes that we studied last weeks (triangles, squares, rectangles and circles). We counted together (from 1 to 20) using tiny and big balls and we started to do adding (like 2+2=4).
In the afternoon we had some activities outside! In our first station the game was to find set amount of things (3 spades, 6 baskets, 15 leaves, 7 stones) and bring them back to the teachers. Another activity was to find Snoopy that has the same pattern (if a child had a Snoopy with cherry pattern, he/she needed to find the same). It was very funny for the children because they played <hide and seek> and at the same time they learned patterns and they counted all the different little pictures on Snoopy.

Tulips

The Tulips had an exciting outing this week to the ‘other forest’. They got to explore winter in the forest by running around and jumping in the snow. They got to climb up and down the hill as they explored!

Lpfo: develop their motor skills. Ability to coordinate, awareness of their own body as well as the importance of maintaining their own health and well-being.
