The Giant Snowman

Today Miss Dippie showed us a funny story about a man in America who made a giant snowman. It was 15 metres tall. We went out to the court and measure how long 15 metre was.  Then we were news reporters and we wrote our own story about it.   We thought about the who, what, when, where, why and how.

Here are some photos of us and the link to the story.

P.E. With Mr L

Today we dodged and we ran and skipped into spaces. We played fisherman. Someone has to stand in the middle of the hall and says whitebait. Everyone else has to run past and if they get tagged they become a tagger. They can tag but they can only move by side stepping. The whitebait have to dodge all the taggers. Alfie and Gracie were the winning whitebait.
