Spring Is...
Beautiful flowers sprouting out
Tiny little lambs being born
A sweet yummy scent in the air
Lovely birds are chirping their birdsong
Sleeping right on the ground
Butterflies floating in the air

Amazing soft green grass that I run through
Beautiful yellow daffodils that pop up to see the new world

Gerald the Giraffe.
Gerald the giraffe is tall and slim, he is yellow and he has brown spots all over him. Gerald is really good at standing still and eating green leaves from trees. He wasn’t good at running. He has four legs, two eyes, a very floppy tail and a very long neck. But he wasn’t a good dancer! Gerald felt sad, unhappy, useless, upset, and very embarrassed. When he finally had danced! He felt happy, wonderful, proud, and excited.    Emily

Gerald the Giraffe
Gerald was as tall as a tree. He was very slim and he had brown spots everywhere.  He had 4 wobbly legs, a bushy tail and googly eyes. His neck was floppy and long.  His body was so handsome, that it glowed in the stars.  He had twirly eyebrows.  He had smooth skin and he had hooves as black as the night.  He was very lonely.
He had a triangle face, he had 2 tiny horns, he had bodgie knees. But the worst thing was he was very bad at dancing.  He was very embarrassed to dance because everybody laughed at him, but then he did a super backwards somersault.  Everybody was amazed because they never knew Gerald the giraffe could do a backwards somersault. Now everybody was friends with Gerald the Giraffe and he was not lonely any more.
Paul

Gerald the Giraffe

Gerald is a tall, yellow, brown, spotty giraffe. He has a tall fluffy neck. He looks very flexible. But he is more of a clot. He is a long slim giraffe. With buckled knees and bandy legs. He has a head shaped as a triangle. He has two nice horns and he feels rather smooth and he has a lovely smooth tail. He has ears shaped like diamonds. He has furry skin. He’s a wobbly giraffe. He is a very brave giraffe. He is a bad dancer. Then he found the music he likes and he was amazing. He felt very proud, and he did a backwards summersault.
He was very happy  !!!

Museum Trip




Zakia and Jordan are looking at the beautiful shiny jewellery.


Tom is blind folded and trying to figure out what the object are in the cupboard.  The objects were a banana, an egg cup and a hand.

   
Paige, Matthew , Tom and Daljit are smelling these bottles to see what is in them.



These people are tasting to see what was on the sticks, it was marmite.

We are trying to figure out what is inside the containers by shaking them.

These people are looking at objects to remember them when the cloth is put over.

We are feeling things and describing them to a buddy.



These bottles smelt of coconut, strawberry, peppermint and orange.

This stick had honey on it.

I guessed this stick had vegemite on it.

This tasted yucky and it was salt.



We are drawing the cups in the cabinet and we pressed a button and a light came on under them.

We are smelling the smell coming out of the drawers. The smells were perfume, oranges,coconut and coffee.

Matthew is feeling this bowl with his blind fold on and describing what it feels like to Daljit.
