Small group
For small group this week we had Art, Music, Volcano Fun, Games and Magnets.
The children had a fun time exploring with Magnets. For the past two-weeks the children had sorting shapes activities, and while we were talking about the shapes, the children had different ideas as to what the shapes looked like. When we showed the triangle shape they said it looked like a house and the circle one looks like a ball. So we decided to have an exploring with shapes activity, where the children could build different things and still get a chance to talk about the shapes they used.
They also enjoyed Fun and Games activity. This week’s game we played was ‘Who is knocking at the Door’. We started our activity by sitting in a circle, and then we asked the children to cover their eyes. Then one of the caregivers slowly took one of the children out without the other children noticing. Once they went out they knocked on the door, and the children still sitting in the class tried to look around their circle and figure out which one of their friends was missing.
And for Volcano Fun we had a fun time experimenting what happens when soda (coca cola) is mixed with something sugary. Each child had one bottle of soda and one candy each. The children took turns putting the candy in the soda bottle, as they mixed them the soda shouted out in the form of foam, which really excited the children.
