Aliens love underpants 6.3.14

This week we have been looking at the story book 'Aliens love underpants.' We have made collage underpants with children which have gone up on display. The children were engrossed in this activity spending at least 20miniutes each cutting, glueing and ripping the pieces of material. 

We have also made space mobiles this week, using skills including threading, cutting, sticking and sprinkling. This activity was very tricky due to the threading but children enjoyed the challenge. 

In the role play corner the children and adults worked hard creating our very own space station, we have made a rocket, information booklets on the planets, paper mâché planets, picnic from whatever next book and shooting stars. The children love playing in this area and are acting out the stories that we read in class in here. 

We have also made space aliens using chalk, it was great fun smudging all the chalk to blend the alien together and create funny looking aliens.
