Noc vjestica

BU

Bundeve, duhovi, pauci, vještice, šišmiši....Noć vještica / Pumpkins, ghosts, spiders, witches, bats....Halloween

Aktivnosti i Montessori vježbe koje ću opisati u ovom postu su se jako dojmile djecu. Ona i inače jako vole ovo doba godine i sve što je mistično, osobito aktivnosti vezane za Noć vještica. To je, između ostalog i dobar povod da se razgovara o strahovima što djeca također vole.

The kids were impressed with the Montessori activities and exercises which I will describe in this post. They normally like very much this time of the year and all that is mystical, especially activities related to Halloween. That is, among other things, a good occasion to talk about the fears - they also like it . 

Strašilo od bundeve - dubljenje bundeve i izrada strašila je izvrsna vježba iz praktičnog života. Djeca su se podijelila u dvije ekipe {vjerovali ili ne :-)} - jedni su iz bundeve sa žlicom vadili koštice i mesnati dio, a drugi su odvajali i čistili samo koštice.

Ove godine smo radili dva strašila:

~

Scarecrow pumpkin - carving pumpkin and making scarecrow is a great exercise in practical life. Children were divided into two teams {believe it or not :-)} - one pulling out the inside of the pumpkin with a spoon and hands, while others separated and cleaned seeds. 

This year we did two scarecrows:

Oči, nos i usta smo nacrtali s flomasterom:

Eyes, nose and mouth are drawn with the marker:

Odrezala sam "poklopac" za strašilo:

Gotova strašila od bundeva sa svijećom iznutra:

Finished pumpkins with a candle inside: 

Koštice ćemo iskoristiti za nizanje i druge vježbe:

Seeds will be used for stringing and other exercises: 

Prenošenje bundevica s pincetom:

Transferring pumpkins with tweezers: 

Vađenje pauka iz riže s prstima - s lijeve strane se nalazi onoliko pretinaca koliko ima pauka u riži (ovo je bio i prošlogodišnji hit, ali ove godine sam malo promijenila vježbu). Pauke sam kupila u Turbo limaču.

~

Removing spiders from rice with fingers -  there are as many compartments as there are spiders in rice (this was the last years hit, but this year I changed exercise a little). I bought spiders at the Turbo Limač. 

Kad su svi pauci izvađeni, prstom ih utisnemo nazad:

When all the spiders are on the tray, we put them back with the finger:

Hvatanje vrhovima prstiju (odabrala sam staklene štapiće u zelenoj i narančastoj boji {Offertissima} kako bi odgovarali bojama koje se često koriste za Noć vještica):

~

Transferring with the fingertips (I choose a glass sticks in green and orange color {Offertissima} - colors that are often used for Halloween): 

Presipavanje dekorativnog pijeska {Müller} - pomiješala sam zeleni i narančasti:

Dry pouring, decorative sand {Müller} - I mixed the green and orange: 

Nizanje perlica na čupavu žicu - također boje prikladne za Noć vještica:

Stringing beads on pipe cleaner - colors also suitable for Halloween: 

Predvježba za šivanje - bundevu sam skinula s interneta, izrezala, plastificirala i probušila rupice:

Introduction to sewing - I downloaded pumpkin from the Internet, cut, laminated and punched holes:

Slaganje bundeva od najveće do najmanje - ovo je vježba koju sam pripremila zbog najmlađe djece u grupi (besplatan download kartica možete pronaći na sarahsellers.co.uk, Autumn theme):

~

Sorting pumpkins by size - this is an exercise that I prepared for the youngest children in the class (a free download cards available at sarahsellers.co.uk, Autumn theme)

Sortiranje po obliku - bundeve, pauci, duhovi (kupila sam ih u Intersparu):

Sorting by shape - pumpkins, spiders, ghosts (I bought them in Interspar): 

Uparivanje istih brojeva: dijete treba među karticama s brojevima pronaći isti broj kao na bundevi (besplatan download možete pronaći ovdje):

~

Pairing of the same numerals: child needs to find, among cards with numerals, the same number as on the pumpkin (free download available here): 

Male matematičke igre za zabavu:

Složi bundevu (igra dvoje djece, djeca bacaju kockicu i ovisno o tome koji broj dobiju uzimaju iz košarice odgovarajući oblik - dok ne slože bundevu kao na slici), besplatan download:

~

Little math games for fun:

Roll a Jack-o-lantern (game for two children, the children take turns and build their Jack-o-lantern - until they roll a Jack-o-lantern as shown), free download: 

Bundeve i pauci (prošle godine smo imali sličnu igru) - djeca bacaju kockicu i na bundeve slažu onoliko pauka koliko piše na kockici:

~

Pumpkins and spiders (last year we had a similar game) - children throw the dice and match the spider to the pumpkins depending what writes on a dice: 

Brojke i žetoni - umjesto žetona sam stavila duhove - djeca su se oduševila:

Numbers and counters - instead of the chips I put the ghosts - the kids were thrilled: 

Slikovnice koje smo čitali, a svidjele su se djeci:

"Mjesta ima na metli svima", Julia Donaldson; "Juha od bundeve", Helen Cooper; "Strašilo", Marie José Sacré, Luko Paljetak

~

Picture books we've read and the children liked: 

"Room on the broom", Julia Donaldson; "Pumpkin soup", Helen Cooper; "Scarecrow", Marie José Sacré

Dekoracija u dječjoj garderobi: jato šišmiša. Djeca su me pitala zašto nisam stavila i vještice. Besplatan download šišmiša imate na Activity Village, a inspiraciju sam dobila od Jo (A bit of this and a bit of that).

~

Decoration in the children's wardrobe: a flock of bats. The children have asked me why I didn't put the witches. You have free download of the bat templates at Activity Village, Jo (A bit of this and a bit of that) gave me the inspiration.

Kako raste grah? / How to grow beans?

Prije mjesec dana je svako dijete u čašicu posadilo jedno zrno graha. Učili su kako se brinuti o biljkama (svatko se sam brinuo o svojoj biljčici), shvatili su što im je potrebno za rast: toplina, svjetlost i voda. Neke biljke nisu izrasle jer su zalijevane previše ili premalo. Ipak, djeca nisu odustala - dobila sam povratnu infornaciju od roditelja da su kod kuće posadili grah o kojem djeca brinu. 

~

A month ago every child planted a bean in little cup. Children taught how to take care of plants (everybody cared about her/his little plant), they realized what one plant need to grow: warmth, light and water. Some plants are not grown because they are watered to much or too little. However, children aren't given up - I got feedback from parents: children planted the beans at home and care about it.

Nakon desetak dana djeca su odnijela 27 čašica s grahom svojim kućama. Većina je izgledala ovako:

After ten days the children took 27 little cups with the beans to their homes. Most looked like this:
