Buon pomeriggio!

Oggi insieme a Miss Paola i bambini di reception hanno giocato alla tombola raffigurante i vestiti.

 Questo gioco stimola l'attenzione e la concentrazione. Quindi tutti con gli occhi puntati sul sacchetto delle carte estratte da Miss Paola e pronti a segnare quelle trovate nelle proprie cartelle!

Complimenti ai vincitori: ci vuole attenzione ma anche un pizzico di fortuna!

I bambini hanno poi fatto un bellissimo laboratorio musicale con Miss Elena.

Hanno ascoltato la fiaba musicale di "Pierino e il lupo" raccontata dalla voce di Roberto Benigni e contemporaneamente osservato la storia illustrata.

Ogni personaggio della fiaba rappresentava un strumento musicale.

Tutti i bambini hanno ascoltato con piacere e interesse.

I bambini hanno poi ascoltato e eseguito dei ritmi con il bongo che Miss Elena ha portato in sezione.

E.....qualcuno si è anche cimentato come musicista! Che divertimento!

Good afternoon!! Today in Reception we had a special visitor! Prof. Luca!!! It is always fun when comes to our classroom! We had a small discussion with him!

Then we did movements with him to understand how shapes work!!

Then we used some of our class toys such as the sea animals! WE had to try our best to copy them!!

Prof. Luca was always ready to give us a hand!

We tried to make them as detailed as possible.

And we even colored them so they would be the same! We even used our blocks that have different shapes!

With them, we were able to create so many fun things!! It's always a great day when Prof. Luca comes!!

Good afternoon!!! Today in Reception we worked on a special project with Miss Paola!! In only two days it will be Valentine's Day so we had a special discussion on what love is! Then Miss Paola drew a big red heart and we had to punch it out with the Puntoruola.

Then we took some red tissue paper and rolled it into little balls.

It was hard work but we got it done!!

Then Miss Paola wrote down everything we said!! We had so many good ideas!!

Then we took all of our paper balls and glued them around the heart!! We even made a small heart out of the extra balls!! 

As you can see, our work came out better than we could have imagined!!  You will be able to see it displayed in the class room!!

Good afternoon!! Today in Reception we worked with Miss Helen on our Cambridge science! We discussed the differences between people!

Some of us are tall and some short! We all have different colored hair and skin! So then we had to draw these differences on our worksheets!

It was not easy to make our people different!
