Term 2 Week 4

Another week of trying some science experiments. This week we tried to put a sharp stick through a balloon without it popping by covering it in vaseline. We also watched the colour and sugar dissolve on 4 M and M's. It was fun watching the M's float off. After the balloon experiment Zico and I played with a balloon. It was great throwing and catching and hand eye coordination practise.

We got our old ipad out this week and Zico used a drawing programme called Lazoo to draw lots of different super heroes. Here is his picture of Robin.

Zico also discovered drawing on the magna doodle. He drew Batman, Riddler, and all sort of other heroes and villains.

Zico has been reading heaps of new books over the past few weeks. He is reading a variety of books that are easy and some which have a few tricky words in too. This week one of our books was a counting and rhyming book called Seven Big Bubbles. After reading the book we got out our own bubble mixture and blew bubbles too.

As well as Superheroes, Zico loves Dinosaurs and the writing lately has been all about Dinosaurs. Zico has started to add colour to his drawings and he is now writing on lines and learning about half size, tall stick and hanging letters.
