Learning about the parts of the body!

21 October, 2014

Preschool 3 have been learning about the parts of the body. They have made a body, in Girraffe class they have called him Bob! The children decorated him with paper and then labeled him with the parts of the body flashcards. In Cheeky Monkey class the children painted their body and labeled the parts of his body as well. All the children worked very well together and enjoyed learning about the parts of the body!October 2 035 October 2 036

Our First Unit of Inquiry!

17 October, 2014

039This week, Preschool 3 begun our first unit of Inquiry, “Myself and My Family”. We have begun with the concept of “Myself”, exploring our physical characteristics, parts of the body and our five senses. This week, we have been focusing on our physical characteristics and our body parts through the story “From Head to Toe” by Eric Carle. Through this story, the children inquire and explore what we can do with our body parts.

Here is a photograph of the Cheeky Monkey Class doing actions with their body parts.
