This week our little learners in the Honeypots Room have continued their learning journey about jungle animals. To begin another wonderful week of learning the Honeypots explored their senses through exploring 'Who's in the Jungle?' (9/8). Our little learners showed enthusiasm found tigers, lions, elephants and zebras in their Jungle.
Our little learners continued their creative journey using brown paint to paint their very own dingo (10/8). To end another wonderful week of learning our Honeypots had their hands painted grey to make their very own hand print elephant (12/8).
What the Honeypots learnt this week through their interest:
* Opportunities for Imaginative Play
* Opportunities to develop their fine motor skills and hand eye coordination skills
* Opportunities to develop social skills including learning to share with others so all children could have a turn to be actively engaged.
Next week (week beginning 15th August) the Honeypots will continue:
* Continue learning about jungle animals including the elephant.
* Animal themed creative arts experiences
* Stories about different jungle animals
