Toys by Room 6

At our 'Toys Tea Party' we shared this power point showing our special guests some of our work.

Week 11 Term 2 2010

Wow what a busy week it has been . It started with us going to see the middle syndicate's production of Gnomes and Gardens. Callum, Stephanie, Sam, Jade, Oscar, Mahad and Olivia all had a family member in the show and it was so exciting to watch them

.

Room 14 surprised us by popping their puppets up at our window - and then coming in to show us them. They were very impressive and to think they were made from old socks.



We had a look at an old toy that Mrs Westcott had when she was little. She still has the original box and it came all the way from England.


On Tuesday we had the 'Toys Tea Party' - An opportunity to share our learning with a special guest and spend time together. It was a lot of fun and we thank all the people who came to share in our special tea party.

Carol (Blake's Nana) has been helping us to use the computer programme 'inspiration; to classify the toys we took photos of earlier in the term. Click on the images below to enlarge them.

Week 10 Term 2 2010

This week our local educational police officer popped in to see us. His name is Constable Harwood. He stayed for a little while and talked to us about his job and showed us some of the tools he uses in his job.

We took the opportunity to ask him about what his favourite toy was when he was little. We found out that he use to play with toy soldiers and that he didn't have them anymore BUT he did keep the 'Tonka toys' he use to play with. Thanks Constable Harwood for popping in to see us and thanks Jade for taking this photo of him with the class camera.



We also made some invitations, inviting a special guest to our 'Toys Tea party' next week. You can tell by the image below how excited we are to be having a tea party at school and sharing with our special guests some of the things we now know about toys.




Thanks also to Martin for making these paper toys, following the instructions in his reader this week. At our developmental session on Friday Martin showed others how to make them.
