Bodies, Strong teeth and hearts

Great work at Little Stars Theatre Lane last week. We learned about our bodies, strong teeth and hearts. We also learned about growing plants and insects, all while having so much fun with our friends

Fruit and Vegetables

Bhaineamar an méid sun sult as foghlaim faoí torthaí agus glasraí. 🍎🍇🍓Rinneamar taiscéal ar ealaín a dhéanamh trí modhanna éagsula agus ag úsáid ábhar éagsula. Na ábhar is fearr linn ná clúdach bolgáin, agus stampaí bhia. Rinneamar súlachas agus cluichí mórtimpeall ar an Téama. Chleachtaíomar ceansú Lunn luaidh agus sciosúir chun ár tiúchan agus comhordú a láidriú. Tá muid ag foghlaim amhrán nua comh maith.

Hi all We have been having lots of fun learning about our fruit and Vegetables.🍎🫐🍎 The children have explored different methods of creating art, including printing with bubble wrap and using food as stampers. We have made smoothies and played guess the food games. We created fun food work sheets for the children to practice pencil control and introduced scissors work to strengthen our coordination and concentration. We are learning a new circle time song also.

Space and the planets

Hello! last week we have been learning about space and the planets, we did our solar system mural as a team, making the planets with marbles and paint, we have learnt a song about the planets and we have read books about space and the planets. We have our planet flashcards on the wall. We have played with rockets, stones and diamonds, on the sensory table, and with glitter play dough. We have also made our own solar system with watercolours and pipettes on cotton wool! We also played in the garden, sang songs and danced! We had a great time!

Dinosaurs!

We have finished our dinosaur theme 🦕. We had lots of fun learning about the different dinosaurs and learning a new song. We had fun activities and arts and crafts. We excavated dinosaurs from ice eggs, we made triceratops head bands, we had group painting, and much more !

Halloween

Hi all, we have had a busy 2 weeks of Halloween fun 🎃 the children have made splatter painting ghosts, crepe paper bats, spiders, and clay decorations. We have had lots of sensory fun with cloud dough and jelly. For our Halloween party, we made chocolate apples, a puff pastry spider, had a disco, and had great fun getting messy in a Halloween theme sensory room. We hope you have a lovely midterm and a spooky Halloween 👻

Teaching our preschoolers pre-maths

Teaching our preschoolers pre-maths, through learning about size, shape, volume, matching at little Stars We also used fine motor skills and hand eye coordination to help our little ones development.

Autumn in Little Stars

Last week was all about Autumn. The children learned a new song about a hedgehog and made their own hedgehog using leaves. The children did leaf printing, using a leaf at the back of paper and crayons. We had an activity using acorns and pine cones that the children tried to put in a kitchen roll using spoons. This develops their fine motor skills, concentration, sense of space and sense of curiosity. The children did play dough using the autumn treasures from parents. Thanks again for bringing them in. The children played with leaves as a sensory activity on the tray table. We also discussed the autumn colours and the children took part in all these activites alongside their friends.

More pictures from our very fun road safety week in the Middle Room at Little Stars

Stop and go signs

This week we have talked about road safety, painted our own pedestrian crossing, our own stop and go signs, made our own traffic lights and today we practised “crossing the road”. We have also played with water, listened to stories and decorated biscuits to celebrate Nina's birthday!! Have a lovely weekend 🥰

Exploring Autumn

This week we explored autumn. The children made leaf wreaths and we did water play with acorns, leafs and pine cones.

Next week, we will continue the autumn theme. We ask if parents could please bring in leaves, acorns, concors and pine cones next week for our autumn activities if they find them on a trip to the park or in nature. Thanks very much
