This week we decided
to do an underwater ocean scene. The
children were very excited to see fish on the wall. Many of them were familiar with different
types of ocean animals and named the different animals. They were engaged in acting out the fish swimming
on the wall. Mazzy started making his
fish fall onto the ground, saying “Splash!”
On Thursday we decided to include the water table under our underwater
image and added many different ocean animals to the water. The children interacted with both the water
and the image on the wall. They were
inspired to make their fish swim and jump out of the water. This provocation of the water table being
added engaged the children in a more rich pretend play experience. Abraham decides each week to include dinosaurs
to our exploration, so next week we will extend these ideas by having a
dinosaur scene projected onto the wall.
