Phew... we have been out of breath this week with all the activities we have been focusing on to learn about our lungs and how they work. We have been blowing bubbles, blowing through straws to move different objects and then measuring the distance they travel and also making bubble art. We blew up balloons to make them different sizes - more air means bigger balloons. Thanks to good weather today, we even got outside to blow bubbles in the garden.
In Xhosa we learned that we have two 'amaphaphu' (lungs).
Our letter of the week was 'o' - for oxygen of course!! The children made an ostrich by sticking on a body and then using a straw and white paint to paint on the feathers.
Next week we are focusing on our senses with lots of things to taste, feel, see, hear and smell, alongside Shavuot, which ties in beautifully with flowers and using our senses.
Please feel free to post your comments or feedback, we love hearing from you all!
Have a wonderful weekend,
Much Love
Morah Lana
