All children are artists

Working with paint 

 Painting is a way for children to use their senses, explore colours, express their emotions, explore process and outcomes, and create aesthetically pleasing works. In the Alphas, painting is one of the greatest moments we have in our daily routine!

COLOURS

The Alphas have been exploring colours and learning 

various songs about it. They love it!

Today we are sharing some of the songs we sing 

 in the classroom with the use of props, flashcards and 

movements to these songs. 

We hope you enjoy it!

Alpha children have been exercising their fine motor skills. 

It is essential for children to strengthen their hand muscles and refine their hand-eye coordination.

Have a look at some of the activities they have been working on in order to further develop their skills:

Fernanda and Isadora using eye droppers to transfer water.

Lucas and Isabella using rubber bands.

Bernardo, Lucca, Lucila, Theodora and Manuella 

manipulating play dough.

Stella, Catarina and Otto working with different materials.

Julia, Theo and Felipe learning to glue.

Rafael using a spoon to transfer gel balls.

Mariana transferring liquid from one container into another.

Manoela, Julia, Laura and Tomás threading through big beads.
