The Shape Game

The younger children looked through the book The Shape Game by Anthony Browne.

We talked heaps about the cool pictures. At the end the boys played a game where one boy drew a shape and the other turned it in to a picture.
Ms Finikin drew a shape for us and we created our own pictures.

Dinosaurs

We have been learning about dinosaurs.

We have done different activities around them.

Here are some pictures of the quiz one group did.
T-rex beat Ankylosaur 22-19.

Another group was looking at a cool book given to Ms Finikin by her sister one Christmas. It had some dinosaur origami in it. It was tricky following the drawn instructions so the group watched a video of it and followed along. There was lots of clarifying and requesting help and supporting each other.

Here we are getting excited about the dinosaur books we are sharing.

We combined the two top groups. Our expert explained how the Amazing Capsule Creatures work.

We followed directions and put in our dinosaur pellets.

We got a gallimimus, an anteater, a rhinoceros and a wolf. Only one of those is a dinosaur.
