On Friday, we continued our painting unit by doing some 'Marble painting'. The children covered a marble in paint and then put it in a box lid to create a painting. They had a lot of fun! Here are some photos.
After our Art lesson we had a special visitor. Mrs George, a parishioner from our parish, popped in to give us some books to read, particularly pop up books. She brought some in books for us last year but this time was extra special as she had time to read to us. She is an avid reader and loves sharing her books with the children - we are very lucky!!! Thank you Mrs George!!!
After lunch we had TRUMP time which is where the children are using the key competencies (Thinking, Relating to others, Using language, symbols, texts, Managing self and Participating and Contributing) to choose from a variety of activities. This week they were able to choose from the creating table, writing/drawing table, lego, iPads, and wooden blocks). The highlight BY FAR is the creating table so please keep sending along any spare boxes you may have as they are definitely needed!!!
And finally, just a wee reminder about the CARITAS box which is in our classroom. With it being the Lent season, the focus is on prayer, fasting and giving, so if you have any spare change at all, please give it to your child to pop in our box during morning prayers. Every little cent does make a difference so thank you for anything which you can give.
See you all tomorrow.
