Investigations Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday

We have been learning lots of great things during our investigations time. This week during investigations we have some new activities out on our tables. The favourites so far have been the marble run and the finger painting.

These are some of the photos our photographers have taken showing all of our learning.

Madelynne and Sriya using the water colours to create some beautiful 'season' paintings.

All of the students in KBMS have loved investigation with our puppets.

The finger painting has been a favourite for the week. Ruby and Maia thought the paint felt like a slimy frog.

The marble run was a very popular place this week.

    I love the learning shown in these photos. Investigations is a very important part of our Amaroo curriculum. We believe that kids should be allowed to explore their learning in ways they believe to be important. I talked to a child this week after he built a bridge during Investigation time. He talked about how he found bridges fascinating after watching a show on the Discovery channel the previous night. I encourage all parents to help guide their children's thinking on the way to school with comments such "What do you think you will learn about in Investigations time?" and follow it up that afternoon with some reflective questions about how they went.

      Tracey Madelynne did a fantastic job with her words. She didnt need any help from me. It has been great to see the progress she has made so far. I can't wait to see what words she creates next.

    This is a great blog Mrs Maasepp. Thank you for taking the time to create it. It is great to be able to share the children's learning experiences with them, as well as to see them enjoying themselves. We look forward to updates! :)

    Thank you. It has been a great learning journey for all of us in KBMS and is a great way for the students to start using technology in their everyday learning in class. We will try to make sure we keep our updates coming regularly.
