Swimming!

Wow!  What an amazing first day of swimming!

I was very proud of everyone in Room 12 because:
1.  They sat on the bus nice and quietly.
2.  They quietly walked past the main desk at Jellie Park.
3.  They all changed/dressed themselves FAST!
4.  They all did their best in the pool.

I was a VERY PROUD teacher!  A huge thank you to parents who put so much effort into making sure their child could dress themselves etc.  This is really appreciated.

Here are the fabulous Room 12 having their first school lesson!

Our first swimming lesson! on PhotoPeach

After we swimming we wrote stories about going swimming.  Here is Maddox's story:
I saw people swimming in the big pool.
Maddox is getting very good at finding the letters and words he needs on his word card.
Ka pai!

This afternoon we have been creating our characters for a movie we are making.  We are making a movie of one of our big books "Pirate Polly" for our book launch.  What do you think of our characters?
Room 12 worked in pairs to make these characters.
