Hi Everyone,
Last Thursday was our annual swimming carnival. On Friday we were all exhausted! We managed to get through to lunchtime before the wheels fell off!
We tried in vain to read a story together but all anyone wanted to do was roll around and play with fluff balls on the carpet.
Get the idea. We had 3 hours to go and I was feeling a little bit desperate when I asked the children,
'What colour is the carpet?'
'Blue!" they all piped up.
But our carpet isn't blue it has many other specs of colour woven through it, when you have a really close look. So they did.
This 'Make Your Own Carpet Tile' cut and paste activity resulted from one of those unexpected teachable moments. The children were quiet, calm and relaxed by the time we were finished because cutting and pasting while listening to music was a great sensory soother.
Tim's came complete with a fluff ball.
