Investigations




For the older children who do not have a sleep, after lunch is a special time when the science kits come out. Yesterday, Te Kira experimented with the shapes she could make with the Jacob's ladder toy. Could she make the same shapes with the slinky?

Today, Yvonne had a hive of activity after lunch with some children working together on the marble race, other children making fantastic constructions with the Constructo-Straws and Charlie and Laker working quietly together with iceblock sticks and walnut shells. Three squares with a shell beside each square - one to one matching I thought? Silly! It's a police car! The boys took turns taking photos of their work. (Irene)
