A Sheepish Visit

We were so lucky today to have a visit from some Dads who work on a farm. They sheared sheep in front of us! We also had a turn at feeding a lamb.

We learned that sheep have lanolin in their wool to keep them dry.

Thank you to our visitors. There was a lot of curiosity and therefore a lot of learning!

Check out our videos.

From the kids:

"The man sheared a sheep and it was awesome." - William 

"The baby lamb was cute." - Beau

"We got to feed the baby lamb." - Olivia

Watch this space.....

We have been observing our environment and using it to inspire us in art. We have also been learning about different media in art. That means "the tools or materials you use for art". Tomorrow we're going to use dye and photography to create a new piece of art. Watch this space.....

Jack Frost Visits

Jack Frost visited this morning and we were curious about the art that he created. We used our new microscopes to OBSERVE and DESCRIBE the frost crystals that he left on our seats.

There's No Place Like Home

We are using our study in to homes to inspire us in writing. We have been creating houses using different materials. Check out our amazing homes. Would you like to live there? 

Curious Cookers

This week we have been curious about baking. We baked ANZAC biscuits with Miss Carmel. These biscuits last a long time and were sent to the soldiers during the war. The best part was the smell that drifted through our Habitat. We loved the sweet syrupy scent. 

Curious About Lines

Did you know... lines can be big, small, short, long, horizontal, vertical, diagonal, wavy, zig zag, thick, think, dashed, dotted, swirly and curly?

We do! We are learning about lines to help us with our drawing and writing. Lines are everywhere! What lines can you see in your environment. Can you draw them?

Here is some information about lines from Tessa.
