A discussion during group time to begin our learning during Space Week. I circled the keywords and we then made our own class story!

The Bee Hive
When one of my Kinder children brought in a honeycomb from her very own bee farm, it sparked a myriad of learning experiences and a month-long project-based learning. We began by setting up this amazing beehive play space. A huge thank you to Sai for painting and setting ALL of this up!

Space Week is always a very exciting week in the Kinder Room. A week long (usually more!) of rich learning experiences. In 2022, Space Week included many opportunities for play such as role play, literacy, numeracy, Finger Gym and sensory play. In addition to all the above activities, my colleagues and I also set up an obstacle course for "astronaut training", an asteroid hunt in the outdoor yard space, listening to the planet song and painting planets. It was such a fun, project-based learning experience for all of us!
