Pinata and Kites!

This week marks the end of Term 2. Check out some of the fun we had this week.

On Monday we kicked off the week by having a pinata.  We used this as motivation for our writing for the week.

Pinata by Caleb
I had a go at whacking the pinata like a batter hitting a ball.  The pinata looked like a colourful clowns costume.  The pinata flipped, flew and fell to the ground like a monkey that missed the vine.  If you were lucky enough you got a whole lolly pop.  The unlucky ones got a broken one.

We had fun wrapping up our Inquiry Unit Up, Up, Up and Away by holding a Kahikatea Syndicate Kite Festival.  At this festival we had a competition to see whose kite would stay up in the air for the longest.  Well done to Charlie and Archie's for designing and constructing the winning kite!

    You picked a good day for a kite-flying competition! Well done Archie and Charlie.

    "...like a monkey that missed the vine." that's such a great simile! Made me laugh!

    Thanks for sharing
