Reply to Fideli

Great to hear from you Fideli. We are very busy learning more about Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. We have been very clever making Venn diagrams about their things. we have found that we still use a lot of things that they had then.
Our holidays start in 2 weeks time. After the holiday Emma, Laura, Ella and Aaron are going into Room 5. We are going to have 7 new children starting in Room 6.
Tomorrow we are having our photos taken at school.
It is cold here but we have only had 1 snowfall so far.
Lots of love from us all,
Mrs Matthews and the children in Room 6.

First we had painted our boxes.

Look at how we made a forest for our kiwi.

We put newspaper on our tables.

Janet helped us to cut out the front of our box.

We put our forest into the box.

Janet stuck the box down with a glue gun.

We put a stick in the box to move the kiwi on.

We stuck the ferns to the front of our boxes.

The stick had to be the right size.

We drew ferns for the forest.

The kiwi was glued onto the stick.

We are proud of our kiwis in their forest.
