Arthur's home learning challenge

Arthur made a mobile for his room. He made it out of cardboard, plastic balls, a stick from the garden,  paint, and cellophane. It has a rocket in the middle and stars at the top.

Toys from Mayotte

Today we learnt about a little country called Mayotte. It is tucked in between Madagascar and Mozambique. Arthur's mum and dad lived and worked there for 3 years.

The children do not have toys like us, they make their toys out of things we would throw out.
Here is a picture of a toy car made from an old oil can.

Arthur's Home Learning

This week Arthur  brought in some of the home learning tasks he has been working on.

He has completed an activity challenge by attending swimming lessons weekly and working hard to reach all of the goals in each of the different levels.

He and his family made cute soft toys out of socks! He had to be patient while he stuffed dacron into the sock and then decorated it by sewing eyes on with his mum.
