They are drawing, talking and writing about the regions. They decided to create a polar landscape on top of a table by collecting items from the classroom like stones, clear rocks, vinyl animals, fabric ... and it is still going strong after three weeks. Each day they add new facts to a schema chart, work on a polar landscape mural, build polar homes with blocks, fabric, write about polar animals and most recently they created a polar scientist station. Lots of fun. They had done lots of fun hands on science experiments like melting ice bergs, replicating movement of ice floes, exploring blubber and oil/feathers. I introduced painting with water colours and they have been busy creating northern lights using water colour paints. Their landscapes are beautiful. I am so impressed by my kinders when I look at how much they know.Liz Mccawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14206430427949015545noreply@blogger.com
