Space and Sports day!!

Last week we ventured into space and talked about life on other planets and what an alien might look like. We joined with RS to choose lots of fun activities from making space ships and rockets out of junk, playdough aliens and writing beginning sounds in moon dust!! Some children played a rocket collage number game and made some fantastic creations out of different media.

All about the Weather and counting to twenty!

Our theme last week was the weather. We talked about hot and cold weather and what we should wear for each climate. We made kites and tried to fly them but decided in Bangkok we don't have many very windy days!! So for art we decided to make our own wind by blowing through a straw to make some fantastic paint patterns!





















We got straight back into maths by trying to count to 20 and recognising some of the numbers. We found a nice easy to remember counting song.
