Rosella looked so gorgeous today in their Easter hats. Thank you parents for your artistic and creative assistance! They were very excited to parade their creations today in front of all the mums, dads, grandparents and friends. We had a photo taken before the parade and they can be seen below. For all the photos of the actual parade and the Easter artworks in the library, please visit the 'Latest Photos' page on our school website. There are heaps of photos! Thanks again for donating all the eggs for our Easter raffle. We hope everyone has a lovely Easter break.
Rosella had a bit of fun today creating an Easter message for you using the 'Puppet Pal's iPad app.
Rosella were very clever making Easter chicks out of yellow cardboard, orange paper, pegs and some googly eyes today! We had to complete this craft activity independently during L3 group time and we did a great job. We also had some fun innovating on a favourite song today. We didn't have 'five little ducks who went out one day', but our five little chicks who 'went over the hill and far away'. We had fun singing and acting out our version of the song with our mother chick cheeping and our baby chicks finally coming back! Here are our gorgeous Easter chicks! Rosella are always practising writing our names and we loved using the 'Scratch Art' paper and adding an Easter touch. They look great!
As part of our Easter celebrations, Rosella have been learning about Australia's very own bilby. We have read stories and information books to learn about this amazing, but sadly endangered animal. We also watched videos of bilbies in action and looked carefully at photos. We painted our very own Easter Bilbies with their pink ears and noses, grey hair and their black and white tails. We dabbed the paint on very carefully and tried to create a hairy/furry texture. Here we are hard at work.
Rosella did a fabulous job and here are our gorgeous bilbies that are now hanging in our classroom!
Here is a clip of two baby bilbies at the Adelaide Zoo.
This is a great website you may like to explore in greater detail at home. 'Burra Nimu, the Easter Bilby'.
On Friday Rosella thought it was time to start thinking about Easter and we used the 'Feltboard' app on the iPads to create beautiful Easter pictures. We really enjoyed this activity and we hope to make some other pictures using this app very soon. |
