Our furry feathered class visitor!

Today we had Savannah's chicken come and visit us in class.  We thought she was cute and that her feathers were so soft to touch!

Planting Sunflowers

Today we read the story 'Jasper's Beanstalk' by Nick Butterworth and Mick Inkpen

Then we planted some sunflower seeds instead of beans - hopefully they will grow in time for the Christmas holidays and we can take them home to plant in our gardens.

Keep watching and we'll keep you posted on how our sunflowers are doing!

Discovery Time

On Friday we read the reading book 'The Impossible Bridge'.

After reading it we decided to learn about bridges - then we made bridges out of Lego, Mobilio, cardboard boxes, skewers, wood, paper, straws and ice block sticks.

 Some of us then went to You Tube to find out how bridges are built and how to draw different kinds of bridges.  Here are some of our suspension bridge pictures :
