PRE-KINDERGARTEN News<br />
Isabella, Ayla and Emma have enjoyed constructing with Poly M this<br />
week and have made bubble b<strong>low</strong>ers.<br />
This week we have rugged up and braved the cold mornings<br />
only to be rewarded with much warmer middays. Our class<br />
work has been associated with the ‘m’ sound, the number<br />
6 as well as the popular Milly and Molly Program. The<br />
children have enjoyed several stories associated with<br />
the ‘m’ sound including ‘My Cat Maisie’ by Pamela <strong>All</strong>en<br />
and ‘Mutt Dog’ by Stephen Michael King. Both books<br />
are based around the theme of adopting a stray animal,<br />
which prompted much discussion. Another story that was<br />
very popular is ‘Milly the Meerkat’ by Oakley Graham.<br />
Milly learns about the importance of telling the truth.<br />
In Mathematics we are exploring the number 6 and will<br />
be completing many hands-on activities to help children<br />
to identify, name and sequence numbers as well as write<br />
the number 6. We have learnt about <strong>res</strong>ponsibility in the<br />
Milly and Molly Program, which is also our news topic for<br />
the week. It has been inte<strong>res</strong>ting hearing about what<br />
<strong>res</strong>ponsibilites each child has, especially children who<br />
have pets. Kind Regards, Deb Porter<br />
