It's Christmas Soon!

It's December and we can now feel the Christmas vibe in F1! Snowflakes are everywhere, Father Christmas' workshop is up and running and the Christmas tree is all sparkly and shiny! Jolly Christmas songs can be heard too! What a fantastic atmosphere indeed to learn new things and have lots of fun too!

This week started with a special present from Father Christmas! We were so happy and surprised to see a silver wrapped present on our carpet and when we opened it, it was a big Christmas tree! We all helped each other in putting up the tinsels, baubles and bells! 

We also had the story  'Ben's Christmas' which is about a boy who has been very good so Father Christmas asked his elves to make the finest fire engine toy for him. Father Christmas went to his house whilst he was asleep and placed his present under the Christmas tree. This story inspired us to write our very own letter to Father Christmas and asked for presents we want to get on Christmas day. They were definitely cute wishes! 

For our carpet sessions, Ms Clarissa introduced new words such as tinsels, bells, baubles, snowflakes, Father Christmas, reindeer and more. We have also seen video messages from Father Christmas and even watched 'Peppa Pig's Christmas'. 

In the role-play area, we have been pretending to be elves and wrapping presents for children. The children also had a go at wearing the Father Christmas costume and hat.

For mark-making, we have been tracing Christmas stencils. Children were encouraged to trace the lines and connect the dots. Most of the children understand the concept and tried really hard tracing them. 

This week in our workshop area, we have made our own Christmas stockings! We decorated them with colourful sequins and they are now hung up for Father Christmas to see! We hope he will creep in through the night and place his presents on them! 

This week was also extra special because Minh Anh celebrated her 3rd birthday! Daddy and Grandma brought in a cake and shared it with everyone. Happy birthday Minh Anh!

Fantastic Children!
