The week may have been short but we still managed to muscle it all together..!!!
Our focus was on…….our muscles.
Even I discovered some very interesting facts about muscles……how when we blink we use the muscles in our eyelids, when we sleep our muscles help us to breathe, and basically how our muscles help us to do just about everything there is to do from lifting a feather to lifting a heavy box, from tiptoeing to walking and standing to sitting…..!!!
We each felt the muscles in our arms and clenched our fists real tight to pretend to be like weightlifters, we rolled our tongues in and out our mouths…..and discussed muscles that we often take completely for granted!
In life skills we used wool and plastic needles and sewed hair onto a face outline – of course feeling our muscles tighten up each time it was exerted and felt the difference as it relaxed at the end of a stitch. The children then got to create their own beautiful faces.
We wish Daniela a very happy 4th birthday and a very big thank you to Daniela and her family for the donation of a beautiful toy and book on the occasion of her birthday.
We are on day 41 of our World Cup 2010 countdown….and are so excited for our impending outing to THE STADIUM - yay…!!....but we will have to fill you in on that next week..!!
So…watch this space……until we chat again…
With love Morah Mandy
I saw some old Sea Point acquaintances who asked where my kids are at school. When I told them they only had very good things to say about Sinai Academy and how great the shul is too! I had to agree! Ursula Kroot
