When I grow up...

"You have brains in your head.

You have feet in your shoes.

You can steer yourself in whatever direction you choose"

-Dr Seuss

I can't believe we are down to our final few days of school! This year has gone so fast.

 I am so proud of every single one of these kids! 

Christmas Dress Up Day

Room 12 looked lovely and festive today dressed up in their favourite christmas accessories...

Gingerbread Cookies

Have a look at our delicious gingerbread cookies!

We used our fantastic measuring skills to measure out each of the ingredients and had lots of fun decorating them with icing and sprinkles.

Capacity

This term we have been learning about capacity. 

Have a look at these pic collages we made about the different units of measure for volume and weight...

Christmas Stockings

Our Christmas Stockings are finally finished and they look amazing! 

Here are some photos of us hard at work...

We created our own stencils of christmas patterns and designs that we wanted on our stocking.

We placed our stencil underneath the fabric and followed the outline using a special paste made up of flour and water. 

We painted our stockings using bright colours, being very careful to stay within the lines.

We went out side and peeled off the hardened paste. This left a clear white outline around each of our designs.

A few of our finished products!
