Christmas

Muine Trip during the holidays

Together with our family and friends, we went on a trip to MuiNe. It was an enjoyable trip despite the rains. 

We woke up early to catch the sunrise! It was beautiful!

Water was really cold so Gianna wasn't able to swim so instead she spent time writing her name on the sand.

Splash Pool

Gianna enjoyed a game in water with Ana Vo. Anna Vo pretended to be a shark and chased Gianna.  Gianna was good at saying 'stop' whne she didn't want to be chased anymore.  Later on, back in the classroom, she got a sticker from Ms Clarissa for changing her clothes all by herself.  

Visiting the Vietnamese Room in the International Week

Gianna visited the Vietnamese Room.This time, our theme was Vietnamese Tet. In there, she joined in with different Vietnamese activities with her friends such as a crab,deer and fish game in which she threw up the dice on a big mat.  She enjoyed having a photo taken at the boat full of flowers. Then, she tried to get the hen with eggs in the cage.

Maths Area

Gianna returned to the Maths activity several times this week.  Gianna enjoyed the peg and plate  activity in maths table.   She was able to count the numbers of  the pegs, she counted them using one to one correspondence and was able to represent number 5 using his fingers. She also to recognizes the number 1 to 20.   

Number recognition and counting

Gianna enjoyed putting on pegs so the number of pegs matched the number on the plate.  she was accurately able to add four pegs to the plate for number '4'.

Classroom

Recently, Gianna has been spending time in the Maths area.  She enjoys playing with the animals with Ana.  Gianna also enjoyed role playing with a group of children.  She spoke with confidence.  Here are some of the things she said this morning:

"I get the Ostrich."

"This is my brother" ( pointing to one of the animals)

"I got sister Aria."

"I have Christmas.  I have Christmas presents at home."

"I'm Elsa.  Who are you?"

"I will go!  I am sorry.  I am police!"
