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.

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!

The Lilies worked really hard this week in preparation of Market Day. It´s still a couple of months away but we are working on three different crafts and we are taking our time to make sure they turn out great. We can´t wait to share them!

Sunflowers

Makey Makey

Sunflowers explored the possibilities of makey makey, starting with a banana piano, ending on playing on each other's noses. We've connected cables together with things conveying electricity, spoke about what works and what does not work - that's how we got the idea of using our bodies. We had lots of fun!

LPFÖ:

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

• develop their ability to build, create and construct using different techniques, materials and tools

Sunflowers

Playing with magnets. Team work and conecting learning. Encouraging their curiosity and their understanding of science. They each picked a magnet each and fished around in a tank filled with various materials. They were super surprised when they could pick up a fork, a spoon and small lids all together with help of a magnet. How the magnets could get all of those objects at the same time?
