PRIMARY: Paul Klee This term Primary have been studying the artist Paul Klee. Miss Kate began her lessons by teaching a little about the life and work of the artist. Our first lesson involved creating collages inspired by his piece named Dancing For Fear. The children have been working on many different skills in art inspired by his painting Golden Fish. This includes fish printing, using real fish to print! They had a lot of fun experimenting with this. The children really persevered with this task and produced wonderful sculptures. In the Classroom ESA - Space for Kids - Life in Space - Gravity and weightlessness Our everyday lives involve such activities as sitting, walking, picking up things from the ground and lying in bed. None of these activities are possible in orbit. Once a spacecraft reaches orbit, everything inside it appears to be weightless. Anything (or anyone) that is not tied down will float. Astronauts first feel the effect of weightlessness when the rocket engines are turned off. Without the effect of gravity, blood and other body fluids begin to flow towards the head. In a shuttle or space station, there is no up or down.

Primarily, the teeth are used to build our town but depending on the size and shape some of the teeth are used to make shoes, computers and other things we use on a daily basis. While some people have told me that it’s a bit strange or gross, consider many of the toys you have are made of plastic which I don’t like. So, how did we build the Tooth Fairy Castle? I have been collecting teeth for quite a while now. You never know what your baby teeth may be used for.

It encourages children to be creative, imaginative and to have fun and makes learning more enjoyable and more effective. Children will be given more opportunities to explore the world around them and understand how things work by taking part in practical activities that are relevant to their developmental stage. They are challenged with open-ended questions and given opportunities to explore and share their ideas for solving problems. The Foundation Phase is based on the principle that early years’ provision should offer a sound foundation for future learning through a developmentally appropriate curriculum. It brings more consistency and continuity to children’s education at such an all-important period in their development. The Foundation Phase places great emphasis on children learning by doing. The curriculum will focus on experiential learning, active involvement and developing each child’s:
