How We Express Ourselves
Central Idea: We use our bodies to express ourselves
Lines Of Inquiry: Dance; Mime; Acrobatics
We have started our inquiry into our new unit. We used lots of dress up clothes, masks, streamers, musical instruments and different types of music to explore into our lines of inquiry. After which we reflected on our feelings.

We played Charades. We were given lots of action words like jumping, skipping, dancing etc. We had to use our body to express the action word and the audience had to guess.
We are the class of K2 consisting of 5 and 6 year olds. Our teacher, Ms Smita, facilitates our learning through inquiry and lots of fun!
