Circus Training...

Today we went to circus training in the hall.  We did three activities. The first thing was juggling the balls.  Everyone had two balls and some had three balls.  The next was balancing on a wooden plank. It had a plastic circle under it.  The other thing was to balance with each other.  We got to play with hula hoops while we were waiting for our turn on the balance board.  We did things we'd never done before.  What we most liked was the juggling.  We can't wait until the next activities.

Mystery Box Writing Challenge....

What's in the Mystery Box today?

This activity followed on from our session last Friday.  What else was in the garden?  It was something you'd never seen before.  Your tasks was to model the creature you saw....

Metal Creature...

I found this when I was in Dunedin.  What planet do you think this creature could come from?  This took about four months to make using motorbike parts.

Mystery Box Writing Challenge...

Today we started our first Mystery Box Writing session.  
What was in the mystery box today?

A cover for a packet of seeds...but no ordinary seeds.  Wasn't it nice that your gave you a packet of seeds?

What were the seeds called?

What did you think would grow?

With a little bit of imagination what did you see?  What could you smell?  What did you hear?  What could you taste?  What did it feel like?  

Watch our for our next Mystery Box Writing Challenge......I wonder what will be in the mystery box next week?
