Next up in our sports day was our water transporting race. We choose this because of all the different learning opportunities for every age and stage. The youngest children explored the feeling of the water and enjoyed letting the big children pour the water onto their hands. We discussed being kind to our friends and asking permission. We discussed the question ‘Do the younger children like that, how do we know?’ We supported the youngest children to show them how to carry water from one bucket to another and the eldest children were learning shape and space by choosing different vessels and seeing how much they could fill them with and seeing if they could get it across without pouring everywhere. The preschool children noticed that the smaller vessels didn't hold as much as the larger vessels.
