Lili has continued to take off with her reading and writing. She loves it and can't get enough! In these pics she is creating a story from the sight words she has learnt (the white ones) and words made from sounds she has learnt how to blend (red/orange words).
Lili loves to tell stories and it is marvelous to see her joy at being able to put words together to communicate. After composing the sentences she wrote them in her book.
We made animals from recycled materials. Some giraffe-like creatures...
...an elephant...
...and a crab.
Nathan went for an abstract creation he called a "Thingy-mabob."
Lili had ballet and jazz early in the week, and then it was Amy's turn mid-week. The photos aren't that great! I so enjoy watching Amy dance, she does her ballet beautifully.
We enjoyed a trip to the Museum. The kids especially liked the hands-on science area.
The exhibition about Coal, Steel and Newcastle was great and also had some hands-on elements...
The old Newcastle tram was wonderful...
After that it was time for gymnastics again.
We finished off the week with a bit of a road trip to deliver three of the guinea pig babies to some friends. The kids had a great time catching up and playing with their friends and it was a nice way to finish off our school week.
I love your crafty animals and thingamabob!!
ReplyDeleteThe museum looks great, I think we might head in their soon. Looks like a great week :)Lots of fun and learning.
