Tall forest trees.

Another collage by Smilebox

We read the story How the kiwi lost his wings and made the forest that no other bird wanted to look after. This is how we made them. We painted half of a page green and the other half brown. We had to paint both sides.This was done to 5 pieces of paper. Mrs Millward showed us how to roll the paper and add a new sheet of paper half way through. Then we cut the top into strips and made it curly. The last part was to pull the inside out to make our tall forest trees.

My shoelace blues 2012

We enjoyed learning the poem my shoelace blues and learning to tie shoelaces.

My Taniwha

We made a taniwha with all the shapes we knew.
Come and see how much fun we had.

The boy who flew to close to the sun

Affonso and TaekwonDo

We are learning all about myths and legends. In maths we decided to use all the things we know to make wings just like in the story Icarus and the sun. We watched a movie and listened to the story. Then we had to think about how we could measure, the shapes we know and what half is to make the wings. To decorate we used a pattern with colours and had to remember that the one wing should look the same as the other.
It was fun making our Icarus wings.
