This week, we finished up our Sound Kreations residency.  Ask your child to tell you about some of the moves we did!

Today, we created a person out of shapes.  This seems like a simple task, but it had many layers.  We talked about proportions of body parts; grande/pequeno, largo/corto (big, small, long, short) and the children needed to choose shapes that worked according to these parameters.  They also needed to count the number of shapes they used, and record the number on their paper.  

Today, I sent home the children's visual journals as well as a copy of their EYE assessment.  Please take a look through your child's work with them, and return the book tomorrow during conferences or next Monday.  We will be discussing the results of the EYE, as well as work products during our conference tomorrow or Friday.

I have told the children they are not to colour, print, take out pages etc.  It is only to look through, and then to return.  This is the ONLY WORKBOOK that we use for the entire year, so please take very good care of it.  :)
