Living Things - Ideas for Your Hat...

 Maybe you could make a bird?

 Or a jungle animal?

 Or a sea creature?

 Or a savannah animal?

 Or a farm animal?

 Or an animal from the antarctic?

Get your thinking caps on!

Ryder from Sandi and Robin's class is modelling our hat for the production. Everyone will get one of these to decorate, cut, flatten, build onto, paint...what ever we design - with one condition: 

OUR HAT HAS TO BE SOMETHING THAT IS ALIVE. 

So - have a think with your families about what living thing YOU might like to be. You can collect and bring bits and pieces to use, too. We are going to decide/start working on our design on Monday.

Hats for the Production

On the last Monday evening of term, we are having a whole-school show around the theme of "Life".
We are making hats for the wearable art section of the show, and we will learn a dance to accompany Nic's class as they show THEIR wearable art.

On Monday we made practice hats. We were trying out ideas and working out what was easy, what was hard and what we would fix next time.

 What a lovely, even circle of sparkles, Emma! That flower is pretty, too.

Wow, Lyric - how did you get those pom-poms to stay on? Clever!

Sophie - you experimented with LOTS of different materials. I wonder which will stick the best?

Meet our First 2015 Little Einsteins!

 Emma, Lyric and Sophie are our first three students for 2015! Welcome to school - you are all FANTASTIC learners.

Today we read "In the Garden" - we are learning to point at each word as we read it. Carolyn put a butterfly sticker on our pointing finger and we made sure the butterfly landed on each word as we read it.

We were all VERY careful readers. Wonderful learning, all of you!

Happy Christmas, Everybody!

To the Little Einsteins and your families,

What fun it has been to be your teacher this year. 

You have been such wonderful learners. 

I hope you all have a fun summer holiday.

Keep on counting!
Be on the lookout for fast words - they are EVERYWHERE! 

You will no doubt go to lots of interesting places so the learning will not stop!

Mums and Dads - this made me smile:

 Thank-you for your gifts - some of them may possibly have been eaten while your children were not looking! Have a wonderful break - see you all in 2015!
