Literacy week and Mother's Day

This week was all about books and reading. We ended off the week with the children dressing up as their favourite character from a book or story - wonderful to see such  diverse tastes in literature. There are however some children who seldom read and preferred to dress up as a movie character ( note to self - get the parents to read!)

We also made Mother's Day cards and pendants ( both ideas from pinterest) The card had a mother bird hugging a baby bird - I used scrapbook paper for the cut outs. The pendants were air dried clay hearts with child's fingerprint on threaded on chord with beads for decoration. - the big problem came when the wrapping started, a feat the children seemed to struggle with!(need to give some lessons before Father's Day!)

Happy Mother's Day to all Bloggers and friends - have a wonderful day!
