Swimming Pool Fun

This term Room 7 has been lucky enough to have some time in the pool learning some water skills. Today Miss Donnell brought some noodles into the pool and we were able to show off our floating skills. First we practiced floating on our backs, then we floated on our stomachs. Miss Donnell gave us some time to practice our swimming stokes with the noodle too.
Kreya you are confident in and around the water. It is great to see how much you enjoy coming to our water skills lessons. You are able to put your head fully underwater and I have seen you practice floating and sinking. You show resilience when using your pool noodle, always standing up when you weren't going the way you wanted and starting over again. I'm so glad you are having fun and taking risks with your learning.

L is for Lazy Lion

We have started our learning journey this year with the letter l. Room 7 had a phonics activity that made an awesome lion! Kreya made a beautiful pattern on the face and the mane of her lion. Kreya set off to work quickly and coloured in all the parts of the mane a little bit so she was able to see which colour would come next. When we started cutting out our lions, Kreya made sure she was very careful cutting around the outside of the circle. Once Kreya was finished, she decided to help our newest student finish colouring in her lion. 
Well done on showing respect and helping others Kreya!
