Summer Slam 2018 Week 3 - July 30

Hello Parents,

Yeah! we are into the grand final stretch of Summer Slam 2018. A warm welcome to the new slammers who joined us this week!
A 'tie 'n dye' project was the first order of business of the day. Tie 'n dye drawstring bags would be one of our take-home projects for the week! Now isn't that a spoiler alert!

We presented how designs could vary based on 'tying' them at different sections on the cloth. But first, the bags had to be pre-soaked in the salt solution to ensure that the colours behave themselves. 

Representatives from the makers of the popular probiotic drink 'Yakult' made their presentation this morning. The key point in the presentation was about the necessity of probiotics in our digestive system. Our slammers went home with a Yakult drink to enjoy.

In our unit on making musical instruments, we have begun to assemble a guitar. Children are learning about how a stringed instrument works, in this process. 

 

Gymnastics- Today our coaches showed us what is called the ‘general gymnastic circuit’. The various kicks and cartwheels (baby cartwheel & sideways cartwheel) were done during the session.

Sports- Cricket, Glorious Cricket! and who better to present it than Uncle Sathish, who claims that he very closely missed being part of team India! He began by explaining the game and its rules. He also ran some catching and throwing drills.
