Childrens' Writing

We are currently doing an inquiry of Fairy Tales. Here are some of the children's descriptions of the woodcutters axe from 'Little Red Riding Hood'. Their goal was to use adjectives:

Once upon a time there lived a hunter with an axe. It was bright red. It was huge.
By Katie

The axe is as sharp as a knife. The axe is as shinny as a diamond.
By Jade

The axe is sharp, and grey brown and dangerous.
By Tyler Y

The axe is sharp and strong, also dangerous. It's mighty powerful strength is tough and curvy.
By Mason

I hope you enjoyed these as much as I did.

Leaf Fight







On Wednesday the children had a leaf fight. Afterwards we wrote about what we did. It was lots fun. The children decided to make teams and seperated into boys and girls.

Camp
















The children had a wonderful time at camp. They pushed themselves and over came challenges like the flying fox and 'Rock Up'. It was great to see them working together as teams of different ages. Parents, thank you for your contribution. We could not do camp with out you support.
