Unit 4 - Who we are

Unit 4 - Who we are

          

We are starting a new Unit “humans are constantly changing” and this time pupils will be learning all about growing and becoming independent. 

At this time, we would like to have your 

help with developing self-help skills at home.

We would like to ask if children could bring pictures of themselves when they were newborn babies and when they were 1, 2, 3 and 4 years old (one picture of each age). Please write the age on the back of the pictures. In case you send them by e-mail or pen drive, please add the ages on the document. They will be creating a timeline with these pictures. You are welcome to send short videos of your children when they were babies, and/or videos or pictures of yourselves. 

We would also like to ask if you have any baby items (could be clothes, toys, bottles, pacifiers, etc) that the children used when they were babies but don’t use any more, or are starting to grow out of. These items will be kept in the classroom throughout the Unit and returned at the end of the investigation. Please, do not forget to label all the items.
