We have been very busy preparing the space for Nature Monster's visit!
- Creating beautiful bunting to hang up and decorate the space
- Making Autumn leaves to put on our tree
- Making food for Nature monster to eat
- Toy designing - board games and stick people
- Writing stories to entertain him
- Planting seedlings in the courtyard garden
Building Group
- Designing and constructing bricks for our giant skyscraper cubby.
- Measuring Building Monster's outline and constructing a box bed for him. How many hands long? Are our hands all the same size? Measuring and comparing those sizes.
- Writing 'Window Stories' to remind Building Monster of things he used to see out of the window of his sky scraper home.
- Making paper aeroplanes to hang from the ceiling to make the monster really feel like he is up high in the sky. We also measured how far each plane flew using our feet. How can we measure – using our feet (toe to heel for accuracy).
- Looking at 3D shapes – how many sides does a box have?
