Today we started to CREATE our paper mache puppets.  We have each chosen a character from a fairy tale that we know, and we will make the puppets to show at our 'Arty Party' later on in the term (to which you will all be invited to!)

These are some of the WOW words that the class came up with to describe how it felt to work with the glue...

          - oozy                - sticky               - slippery                               
       - interesting       - slimy               - gooey
      
       - disgusting        - freezing cold

One sentence challenge

We have been learning to make our sentences more interesting. We have one minute to change a boring sentence into an interesting sentence to hook the reader.
