Going on a Jungle Trip!

Aislynn and Niko's wet pastel art.

Today we packed up our imaginary backpacks with water, snacks, blankets, extra clothes, cameras, binoculars and our favourite toys (of course!) and headed off to see the jungle. We read the story We're Going on a Lion Hunt, adapted by Margery Cuyler. After the story, we sang our own version as an echo song. We saw a lion, but luckily we made it back home before it could eat any of us!

We continued to play with the percussion instruments in music and also played Popcorn, a movement game that uses a drum and listening cues.

The children used chalk pastels once again in art, but today we used wet paper, which alters the appearance of the pastels to look more like paint.
