Whale Tales

Our school is lucky enough to be designing a whale tail for the art trail. It is a trail to remind people what treasures the Bryde’s Whale are. We had to plan and a design for the tail and only one could be choose. 

Room 23 decided that we needed to have a reminder about the Bryde’s Whale in our classroom so we created Crayon and dye whale tails for our walls.

Lockdown Reading Survey

 Today we met as a home class to talk about what it has been like learning from the distance. I asked the children to think about how many books they had been reading. 

After that the children and I talked about what things they had read. 

We discussed What we like a dislike about reading during lockdown. 


Finally I asked the children to put themselves on a scale to show how they think their reading is progressing during lockdown.
