Our Aistear theme ‘People who help us’ got into full swing this week.We decided to call our groups after the names of our teeth. We had the : Molars, Canines, Incisors, Wisdom Teeth and Milk Teeth groups. This was so much fun and helped us learn lots of new words.
In the construction area we designed and constructed the dental surgery with a large waiting room, reception area, dental surgery and bathroom. The waiting room even had a play area!
In the small world area we used a large floor mat, mini figurines and blocks to explore our theme and we made the doctor’ surgery, the optician and the dental surgery. We also made the car park and made signs for the reserved parking spaces.
We learned to play a new board game called ‘ The Magic Tooth Fairy’. We had so much fun especially when we found a lovely shiny coin under our pillow!!
In the creative area we made the Tooth Fairy. We used lots of bright colours and gave her magic wings. We also cut out healthy food and unhealthy food for our happy tooth and sad tooth.
We made a special visit to the library on Thursday and as November is the month we remember those who have died we prayed for all the people who have died in our community at the graveyard en route to the library. We had a very busy, enjoyable week.
