We started Aistear this week! Aistear recognises the importance of play
in supporting children’s early learning and development. Play is special for children. It is their “work” and their way of learning about the world.
Through play, children try out new skills,explore their imagination and creativity, develop language skills and develop relationships with other people.
Our topic is Hallowe'en.
In the witches' cavern we made up spells, wrote them on our whiteboards,added the ingredients to our cauldron and stirred up some trouble!
In the construction area our builders made houses for the poor teachers who had been turned into little teddy bears by a wicked witch!
We were very busy making broomsticks and cats out of playdoh for the witches!
In the creative area we made witches'wands!
There were lots of spiders in the sand area so we counted them and made up sets of 5 spiders. We also made some yummy cakes with 5 spiders hiding inside them!
I wonder what we will be up to next week!!
