F1X : Newsletter 20.03.15

What a fun week we've had in F1 unit! The children are becoming more confident when exploring different learning areas in and out of the classroom. They have also been developing friendships and playing nicely with each other. Fantastic!

Focus songs this week:

Old Mc Donald

Old Mc Donald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O!

And on his farm he had a ______, E-I-E-I-O!

With a _______ here and a _______ there,

Here a _______, there a _______,

everywhere a ________!

Old Mc Donald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O!

(cow-Moo!, sheep-Baa!, duck-Quack!, horse-Neigh!, chicken-Cluck!, goat-Meh!)

BINGO

There was a farmer who had a dog and BINGO was his name-o!

B-I-N-G-O! B-I-N-G-O! B-I-N-G-O! And BINGO was his name-o!

LITTLE PETER RABBIT

Little PeterRabbit had a fly up on his nose!

Little Peter Rabbit had a fly up on his nose!

Little Peter Rabbit had a fly up on his nose,

So he flicked it and it flew away!

Clever, clever Peter Rabbit!

So he flipped it and it flew away!

Here are the highlights this week:

* Old Mc Donald has just opened another farm and we are very lucky to have it in our very own classroom! Our role-play is now set-up as a farm with all the happy animals making different sounds and busy children feeding the animals, cleaning the farm and even giving the animals their baths!

* We would like to welcome Nhu May and her family in our F1 unit. We are very happy to have Nhu May with us and we are looking forward to sharing wonderful moments with her this year!

* Last Tuesday, we had another fun visit from our friends from Animal Rescue and Care. They were with Dr Nghia, a very friendly vet who taught us how to treat animals at all times. They also brought along a dog named 'Ziggy' and 2 lovely white cats. Some of the children were very brave and volunteered to give the animals gentle strokes. Well done children!

* We made a pink play dough this week and we only used 3 ingredients. We used baby lotion, corn flour and food colour! It came out really soft and smells really good too!
