Amelia and Cora rocked this! 
Not only did they set up and take fantastic photos independently but they also dictated very clear text and added to the original story. 
Big ups to the both of you!!

We have written some cool stories about the witch from
Room on a Broom, by Julia Donadlson.

As part of our KOS unit we have been talking about recognising our feelings
and times or things that can make us feel that way.

Smarty Pants Collage Art

We have been reading the big book “Smarty Pants” by Joy Cowley.

We created these cool collage artworks.   First we found pages of colours in magazines to tear out.  We tore them into small pieces then glued them onto our pants with groups of colours together.  Mrs Fong was very fussy; she wouldn’t let us finish quickly.  She made us fill in all the spaces.  Some of us put stars and other shapes on them like Smarty Pants had in the book.  We cut out the pants when they were dry.  Then we drew a background with sharpie and dyed them ourselves.  Next we took photos of ourselves lying down with our arms out on the carpet and photos of our feet.  We laid it all out on our background and glued ourselves on.  Some of us even added a hat.  We are very proud of them.  We are going to show them in our assembly next week!

We have had great fun experimenting with things that fizz and foam.  Check out some of our pictures and video.

Getting more into the science...

We learnt that when a carbonate mixes with an acid,
it makes a gas which fizzes.
