The Beautiful Blue Jay

Next week I will be telling the oral story The Beautiful Blue Jay. Perfect for Spring!

Creative authors!

A lot of the children in the class have become inspired to create their own books!

Some Spring Rhymes

Old John Muddlecombe

Old John Muddlecomb lost his cap
He couldn't find it anywhere, the poor old cahp
He went down the high street and everybody said
Silly John Muddlecomb, you've got it on your head

Little Miss Tucket

Little Miss Tucket
Sat on a bucket
Eating some peaches and cream
There came a grasshopeer
And tried to stop her
But she said, "Go away or I'll scream!"

A sailor

A sailor went to sea, sea, sea to see what she could see see see
But all that she could see see see was the bottom of the deep blue sea sea sea

Garden Snail

Slowly slowly very slowly
Goes the garden snail
Slowly slowly very slowly
Up the garden rail

Quickly quickly very quickly
Runs the little mouse
Quickly quickly very quickly
To his little house

Home

Here is a nest for a bluebird
Here is a hive for a bee
Here is a hole for a bunny
And here is a house for me

And we created a Spring Mural afterwards

Meshing!

They also have been working on meshing - which is like sewing/weaving on a grid....






our handwork

Check out the weaving and felted hearts the class made!





Scientists in the Schools
