Christmas Tree Reindeers




In Room 23 Hineula and Leighton made Christmas reindeers for the Christmas tree by following a procedure. "We've been practising writing procedures this term, so it was fun to finally use one to make these cool reindeer".

Tree Reindeers

Goal:
No Christmas tree is complete until it has a reindeer, with his shiny red nose, sitting in the branches. Follow these simple steps to make your own.

Materials:

3 Dolly pegs per reindeer

Hot gun with glue

Red or green felt

Eyes

Red sponge for nose

Ribbon

Marker pen

scissors

Steps:
1. Get out 3 dolly pegs and draw on the hooves on two pegs with a marker pen.
2. Two pegs to hang down and one turned upside down to make a face with antlers.

3. Use a glue gun to glue the pegs together.

4. Cut out a small square as a saddle and use glue gun to stick in place.

5. Get two eyes and glue under the antlers.

6. Stick on red sponge nose under the eyes.

Marble Art

Room 6 tried marble art in their classroom recently to create stories about the images they could seem in the patterns. Ryan used pink, purple and yellow to create his art. Well done Ryan, we look forward to hearing your story.

The Butterfly and the Bird

A butterfly was flying away from the bird because the bird was going to eat the little butterfly. Then the cat came to eat the bird but the bird was too fast. Then the cat had an idea. She opened her mouth and waited for a bird to go in her mouth. Then one bird nearly went inside her mouth then the cat jumped up and ate the bird who had come in her mouth. Then the tiger ran fast as he could then he ate the cat.

Number Three


My story is about a Three. He was looking for some numbers to play with. He found two numbers Ten and One. Three said to them, “Can you play with me?” But Ten and One said nothing because they were bad. So Three went to a zoo and Six and Nine were there. Six and Nine said to Three, “What are you doing here at the zoo?” Three said, “I`m looking for some friends.” Six said, “ Yes, we can be your friends.” So Nine, Six and Three went walking down the road and they found Ten One again. Six, Nine and Three said to them, “Can you be our friends now? “Yes,” said One and Ten. They went to Three`s house and played together then they had some lunch. Then Nine, Six, Ten and one went back to the zoo and had a play together. Then they went to sleep. The next morning, Three came to the zoo. Three said to Six and Nine, “Come.” They said, “No.” So Three cried all the way home. He called his mother. She came and stayed with him for 4 weeks.
