It's about time we started to look at the wonderful projects that have been brought in.
We have this fantastic strong structure, the Tower Bridge of London. With working draw bridge. We discussed the method and materials used which was fascinating.
Then we looked at this lovely collage of materials to make on of the three little pigs.
Estelle demonstrated her sink or float experiment with the help of others in the class to make predictions.
Then we built up a tower of books using tubes of paper. We were astounded by how strong they were.
Today was three little pigs day, we huffed and we puff and we blew so many houses down. The common result was that Lego brick houses are super sturdy and we would all like to live in one.
Thank you for playing body part snap, it came in handy for labelling the parts of Archie's body.
Apologies if you have had a harder time getting the children to bed this week as we have started reading the story 'Don't let the pigeon stay up late!' by Mo Willems. Which covers a fantastic variety of excuses to stay up later. But you can always use the same answer they gave the pigeon... NO!
Then we moved on to slipping into our bossy boots for telling each other off. Things like
Reuben STOP bungee jumping off the bed!
Griff DON'T PICK YOUR NOSE because it's disgusting!
NO you CAN'T have another sweet because your teeth will rot!
SLOW DOWN Alfie, or you will crash!
We performed these using our bossy voices making sure we shouted for the capital letters and using expression.
