The Snow Queen: Mini Project.

The Snow Queen.
 
The Snow Queen (Danish: Sneedronningen) is a fairy tale by author Hans Christian Andersen (1805–1875). The tale was first published in 1845, and centers on the struggle between good and evil as experienced by a little boy and girl, Kai and Gerda.
 
We have downloaded the tale in three parts, as MP3 files. Please enjoy this tale with your children.
If we are only closed today, then make the most of the snow, if we remain closed and the weather gets worse perhaps create your own Snow Queen Project at home. This could invovle you building a snow queen in the garden, freezing colourful leaves in pools of ice, writing your own Snow Queen Story, painting and drawing illustartions to accompany the sound files, or just simply enjoying the story with a hot cup of chocolate while looking at the window at the snow falling down. Whatever you do, enjoy and bring the projects into school for us to see and display.
 Remember, regular updates on the school will be posted on our website, fronter and blog.

We strongly believe that while situated in an urban environment, we can still provide our children the "space" to learn outdoors. We hope to continue developing our learning garden, providing the children with a space to pursue self chosen interests and skills.A space in which their ideas and creations can be seen and valued throughout, a space in which childhoodd is "celebrated".
As the winter sets in a new range of exciting and stimulating opportunities will open up to us, the exploration of frost, ice and snow, the considerations of how we can support the birds who visit our garden and opportunities for us to continue building and creating exciting investigations. Please help us celebrate the winter and the wide range of learning opportunities it provides by ensuring that your children have hats, gloves, warm coats and suitable shoes for enjoying the garden at this time of the year.
Thank you.
