2011 over, well done kids!!

Congratulations kids, on completing a fantastic year in Room 3. When you look back at all the things we did as a class and as a school, it seems impossible. However, I asked the children what their highlights were, and this is what they came up with...

Week 7!! Wow!

Well, we are well into the final countdown for 2011. The year seems to have gone so quickly! Before we sign off though for the year, I wanted to post the reading activities that the children did over the last couple of weeks. They were dioramas and 3D presentations of a scene or fact from one of their books. They largely did these completely independently, and had to problem solve ways to create the scenery. I think they look terrific. Well done team! Oh, and apologies to those who are not here...
