Our Senses: sight
While studying the eyes, and sight, our students tried to walk through obstacles, put Legos together, and pour water into a cup while blind folded.
The children also had an opportunity to feel and experiment with reading in Braille. They wrote their own names using Braille and then read them in Braille.
As part of our study on eyes and sight, we
watched an episode of Caillou to open a discussion about Seeing Eye Dogs and
blindness. In this episode Caillou meets a blind woman who uses her dog to
guide her.

First weeks: human body
During the past weeks our theme has been “The Human Body and Senses”, and many of the activities we have done were theme related.
We sang and danced “Head, and Shoulders, Knees and Toes” and the “Skeleton Dance”.
We read the book “From Head to Toe” by Eric Carle, imitating some of the actions from the book and then we did a beautiful group painting of the animals we imitated.

Welcome to our Junior Kinder blog!!!
We have come so far...
TWENTY-FIVE days of school already have passed since we first started and we have seen some great developments. Students have become much better at listening and following directions. This is great!
So, we decided that now is the perfect time to start our classroom blog: a space for sharing all the exciting events, and learning, taking place in our classroom.
We want to welcome all of you, parents and families, to join us in this blog, taking some time to check out our children's fantastic work and perhaps leaving us a comment.
