Plastic Inquiry with a twist

This afternoon our literacy included more of our plastic fantastic inquiries.... The sea turtles are designing an outfit to be worn to White Sunday using white sheets of paper and plastic bags. The elephants, leopards and the lions finished their plans and the Rhinos added more to their spiderscribes.

Craft sessions

Today and tomorrow the Middle Syndicate worked with the Rainbow group ladies to make Xmas boxes. Most of room 12 went this afternoon and the rest are going with Lynley tomorrow afternoon. Great listening of instructions room 12!!!!

Lots going on in Room 12 this morning

The 2 Rhinos today are trialling a new mindmap tool to share our technology inquiries- here's Connor working with Marquis and Eli working with Caleb. Eli thinks this tool is way cooler than spiderscribe. Connor likes spiderscribe.
