Knowing my shapes

Sophie is very proudly showing the class her knowledge of 3D shapes. She can name most basic ones, and explain how to find out how many faces each shape has. She is then using this knowledge to help build a 3D castle.

Sophie and Chi Mai are working hard to measure different things around the classroom. They were both very careful to hold the tape measure correctly and would check with each other to make sure they agreed on the measurement.

Deconstruction

Sophie and Pristine are working together trying to take apart a computer keyboard. They are using screwdrivers to undo all the screws on the back. It was a bit hard and eventually asked some friends for some help. They were very surprised to see what was inside.

Clever Sophie

Sophie was at the Reading Area enjoying an alphabet picture book.  She browsed through the pages and stopped from time to time to tell me the different animals, food, and things shown on the book.  She really enjoyed telling me what she could see on the book.  Very clever, Sophie!  Well done!  

At Mark Making Area

Sophie used the marker and drew something on the laminated paper. She called me and showed me her drawing.  ”Ms Thuy, a sheep!” in Vietnamese. She told me where is the head, the body , the eyes and the tail clearly. 

Comparing Bears

Sophie independently went to the Maths Area and had a go at playing with the Compare Bears.  She chose a pattern to complete, and got the correct bears from the sorting tray.  With minimal adult support, she was able to complete 1 pattern.  Well done Sophie!

Playing with a Friend

Sophie had such a wonderful time at the Fundino Playground today with her friend Kiet!  They both enjoyed riding the see-saw and used their legs to make it go up and down.  Sophie was so happy everytime the see-saw moved that she could not stop giggling and screaming in delight!  Well done Sophie for enjoying playtime with a friend!  

Splash pool

On the slide

Sophie was confident to climb on the slide at the Fundino playground. It was the first time she tried on it. She held onto two climbing holds and stepped on them as well to gain balance. She moved forward carefully with much independence.

Malleable area

Sophie enjoyed playing with the floam and stamps in the malleable area. She took some floam and put it in a flower cutter, then she used the stamp to press it. She demonstrated her improving hand-eye coordination throughout the activity.

Sand play

Sophie stayed for a long time in the sandpit. She used  a mould to scoop sand and fill the containers. She also helped her friend to do the same thing. 

Water tray

Sophie pointed  to frogs and said "ech op" (frog). She put frogs and ducks on a lily leaf and moved them around.

Malleable Area
