Term 4 Week 4

My Time, Our Place

Over the past 2 weeks the children have participated in a variety of craft activities based around Halloween. The children thoroughly enjoyed creating skeleton hand puppets, moulding and creating Plasticine monsters, decorating trick or treat bags and designing spooky masks. These activities have enabled the children to express their creativity and experiment with ideas creative processes. Outside the children have enjoyed playing games of cricket on the oval which allows the children to practice sharing and understand fairness. Cricket also encourages the children to participate in physical activity and develop their gross motor skills.
