International week has been an amazing experience for our class again this year. We have had presentations from eight (8) different countries and learnt so much along the way. A very sincere thank you to all our parents for preparing, presenting and implanting a love of learning about our world.
I am going to share separate posts on each country that was presented to the children, otherwise the photographs would be too much for one post.
So let’s pretend we have our passports in our hands and off we go on our travels to our first country– India.
At this time of the year the people of India celebrate Dwali being the Festival of Lights.
Our sense of smell was given a working out with spices like, cardamon, cinnamon, clove and star aniseed. We were given samples which we will use in our smelling bottles in the Sensorial area of our classroom for a matching activity.
We did a little yoga stretch…..
We looked at some pictures of things we may see in India.
And we watched a fun Indian dance.
Thank you to our parents and classmate for sharing the country of India with us!
