Our current inquiry focuses on self-discovery, friendship, and the impact of our choices. The children have engaged in a creative project where they crafted dolls representing themselves, prompting discussions about what makes each of them special and unique. They were challenged with the question: “I am special because…” and the children thoroughly enjoyed sharing their thoughts. During these discussions, we not only celebrated the qualities that make each child unique but also discovered both similarities and differences among them, fostering an appreciation for diversity.
In addition to our inquiry, we’ve been working on developing strong numeracy skills, particularly focusing on numbers up to 20. This involves activities such as counting forward and backward, as well as learning which digit corresponds to a specific number within this range.
In literacy, our young learners have been working on their handwriting skills and are also reading CVC words. Furthermore, we’ve explored the difference between vowels and consonants, adding an extra layer of depth to our literacy journey.
It’s been a week filled with exciting learning opportunities, and we can’t wait to continue exploring, growing, and discovering more together in the weeks ahead!
