Happy Birthday Phoenix!

Phoenix turned 6 today - how exciting!  She even brought in a birthday cake for us to eat - it had a skull and crossbones on it too!  Yum!  Yum!

Zan, Phoenix and Lachie guard the cake!
We love the cake.  Thanks Phoenix (and her mum, the baker, of course!).
Have you all started to collect the MeadowFresh stickers yet?  Preston has!  He has already brought in 123 stickers.....woot!  woot!
Balin thinks Preston's effort is pretty awesome!
More on our pop-up books!  As you know we are learning how readers interact with pop-up books.  So far Room 12 have mastered the mouth fold, box fold and complex fold.  Today we learnt how to do the 'slider'.  This is where you cut two slits so that a long 'slider' can be pushed or pulled through them.  We made a slider with different mouth expressions (sad, happy, puzzled, worried, surprised etc) which could be pulled over the mouth area of a clown....have a look!

Room 12 are so clever!
