Cambridge Kindergarten  CLAY MODELLING ACTIVITY

Little learners of Cambridge participated in the Clay Modelling activity on 26th September- 2023 with great enthusiasm.Class Educators had planned a host of activities that challenged student’s #problemsolvingskills and #explored their creativity to shape the clay as it breaked and fall before finally turning out to be a #masterpiece! After the child is done with shaping the clay, he/she felt #accomplished.

Through this Clay Modelling,children bought #imagination to life.

Ms.Shivangi presentation on #RELEVANCEOFMUSICINEDUCATION focused the relevance of music in education, and how its inclusion can make the process of learning fun and easy.

Animal Races and Games
Keeping in view that kids love animals #Cambridge organized a fun activity for all its young learners.

Class Educators lined up children for a fun race and assigned each group an animal that is #distinctive in their movements to kids. The children ran, hopped, and crawled across the space and back and continued one after the other.

The activity was a #playful introduction to motion in the animal kingdom that invited the young enthusiasts to learn some of the unusual ways that animals get around.

These activities are great ways to get kids moving. Moving #forwards, #backwards, and #sidetoside just like real life animals do help in #grossmotorskills and is a great chance to work on areas of #development, #balance and #movement.
