A chilly start to Term 3



We have a new teacher in our class this term. 
Her name is Mrs McNaughton. 
The children call her Mrs M.
For the first three weeks of this term she will come in on Thursdays and Fridays. 
After that she will be with us every day for seven weeks.

It's been frosty in the mornings. We wrote a poem about winter:





We looked at frost and snow particles up close and decided to make some.

Here are close ups of frost crystals
Here are our drawings of them


Next we got some Room 10 children to come and show us how to fold paper to cut out frost shapes.

First you fold a square into a triangle....

Then you fold it again.....

Its important to be accurate in the folding.

Voila!
