When you look in the mirror the top of your picture becomes the bottom and vice versa. This makes it very difficult to drawa around, especially when you change direction..

Planting daffodils

We are in charge of the garden and plants this week.
We use a trowel to dig a hole in the ground. We plant the bulb with the root going downwards. We must plant it deep into the soil so it will survive the winter weather.


Making rice-crispy buns








In school we made rice-crispy buns. We looked at melting - solids and liquids - in science. In literacy we wrote using instructional writing frames. We enjoyed making the buns and we LOVED eating them and licking the spoon and bowls.
