Our writing and using our memory...

We welcome Adela who is visiting today.  She will be starting in Room 12 after the holidays.



This morning we all wrote about one of our classroom puppets.  Have a peek at some fabulous examples of writing!

This afternoon we exercised our brains and tested our memory.  We played a Kim's Game.  Room 12 had one minute to look at a total of 8 items before I covered them up.  Then they had to try and remember each item and draw them on their piece of paper.  Have a look at how hard these children are thinking!!!!













Everyone did so well (much better than I expected too).  Congratulations to Tahlia and Maddox who both remembered 7 out of 8 items each.  Woot! Woot!  Room 12 had so much fun doing this activity they want to try again sometime.  A couple of them said they might have a go at home....watch out!
