Getting crafty and creative

Yesterday we have had a bit of fun getting crafty and creative and our afternoon evolved into our own little discovery time..


Whilst we were printing our robots  Sally gave us some choosing time.  The Cheeky Crocodiles carried on making their traditional Maori kites which they had started as part of their reading activity.  Sally was very impressed how they persisted and overcame some of the challenges they faced.


A group of children made their own crazy loom bracelets and necklaces.  Ella S was extremely generous sharing out her bands with others.  Again Sally was very impressed at how they were all relating to others, our current key competency focus.  There was lots of great co-operation and negotiation.

 

Some boys decided to make paper aeroplanes.  They quickly discovered that the smaller ones flew further than the larger ones.  They had lots of fun making smaller and smaller ones to see which one flew the furthest.
