The children received a letter from the Friendly Dragon this week congratulating them on their beanstalks which are all growing nicely. The letter contained a challenge which the children chose to accept. Their challenge was to design a dragon for the classroom. They all had different ideas about what materials they should use. They made fantastic dragons using Lego, paper, plasticine, play scarves and Duplo.<\/p>\n

Poppy \u2013 I liked making my dragon. First I got the face on, then I added the red lips and then I just got the pointing tool and pressed it for the eyes.<\/p>\n

Maddie \u2013 I used a tool for the eyes. The tail was so easy, I just had to roll the tail and put spikey bits on.<\/p>\n

Arya \u2013 Making the head was so hard because you need to roll it into a ball. The wings were easy because you just needed to get two. The eyes were easy too.<\/p>\n

Emma \u00a0\u2013 I liked making my dragon I made it with plasticine.<\/p>\n

Holly \u2013 I liked my dragon because I used plastic feet from the clay bit. I made the eyes all by myself. I got a white bit of plasticine and made a circle then I got a blue bit and did the same.<\/p>\n

Sophia \u2013 So I got some play scarves and I got a chair and rolled two blue scarves up and I put them on the chair for eyes. I made the body from cushions and put a scarf over it. To make the wings I put the scarves around like an oval, like a real wing then I made a big long tail. The fire was red and we put it at its mouth. Andrew put the baby dragon under the head because it was about to be born. The chair was better because the body cushions would break the baby dragon.<\/p>\n

Rayyaan \u2013 I liked making the dragon.<\/p>\n

Caleb \u2013 I put fire and it was red and I put the wings on then I put the tail on.<\/p>\n

Andrew \u2013 I made a big red dragon.<\/p>\n

Aakruti \u2013 It was hard to cut. \u00a0I drew his face then I cut it out and stuck it to the body.<\/p>\n

Nathan \u2013 I made a dragon out of pipe cleaners. I stuck them for the tummy and head and I drew the rest.<\/p>\n

Within numeracy this week the children have been counting money. They have also explored swapping coins to make the same amount using different coins. I am very impressed with their money skills, some children were even able to count and swap money to the value of \u00a35!<\/p>\n
