Making Roimata's Worms

This week we made worms and Mrs Jeffries said we can make 6 worms each and two fishing rods each too.  To make it you need these things, you need to get a pipe-cleaner and glue eyes on and use two eyes if you want.
Then you get a straw and put wool through and glue a magnet on and you can't put them in your mouth because..............you will get a sore tummy.  You can't put a battery in your mouth either and we made a box to put the worms and fishing rods in.

Stick and Glue...

We used our plans that we drew to help us find the boxes we needed to make our Robots. Then it was time to stick and glue them together.

T-shirts

Today for reading we shared a story about t-shirts. In the story everyone was wearing a different colour t-shirt with something different on the front of it. We made our own t-shirts and dyed them our favourite colours.

"Smile!" said ...

Today for reading we read the story, "Smile!" said Dad.  We then took photos of each other using the iPads and made our own story together.
