African Penguins and natural forests

 Last week was African Penguin day and the children did some lovely pictures of penguins.

We have also celebrated Arbor day and the children are very aware of our forests (We are so lucky to be surrounded by indigenous forests) I felt that a lesson on drawing 'proper trees' with light and shadow was in order and the kids did me proud - not one lollipop tree!



Busy drawing!





Some finished products.



 I also want to post a picture of the children using our spelling mat. They jump from letter to letter and spell out the weekly words - this has helped some of my weaker spellers - hurrah!!!!

Next weekend is our annual Fun Run at Leisure Isle - lots of fun for all!!!!!
