Term 2 - Week 5 Week B

Kindergarten Kinder have been studying a fairy tale a week during

Term 2.

In Week 2, we studied The Little Red Hen. We looked at how being a good friend is important and

made some of our own Little Red Hens.

In Week 3, we looked at Jack and the Beanstalk. From the story, we made our own story sequence and photographed ourselves climbing

up the Beanstalk.

In Week 4, we viewed the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. We then watched the

original movie made in 1937 by Walt

Disney.

This week, we are studying Cinderella and have begun exploring symmetry. We are in the process of developing an artwork of Cinderella by focusing on the symmetry of her face.
