Wow - the weeks are sure flying by!!
Our theme this week was BIRDS - 'what it is' and its body parts, and we spent a fun week discussing this. And to the delight of many, with lots of giggles and jiggles, we all got to do the chicken dance....!! (ask your kids they'll show you how it is done)
Our letter focus this week was the letter 'b' - the children got to create and decorate (using feathers, foam, paint and koki's) their very own beautiful birds, and came up with some good words - butterfly, books, bat, box, banana, to name but a few.
In life skills the children peeled and chopped vegetables to make delicious vegetable soup, which they got to enjoy as part of Shabbat.
As a further activity, they did a worksheet on parts of the bird - they had to build their birds with cut out body parts of a bird, some very interesting results followed, they may not all resemble birds, but loads of fun was had by all!!
We will be continuing our theme of birds next week, branching into types of birds - please keep those books coming for our nature table!
So watch this space......until we chat again.....
With love xx Morah Mandy
