Funky Captions for Frankenstein the Frog

Yesterday morning Room 3 wrote captions to go with a photo of Frankenstein our frog. Miss McCartin snuck up on Frankenstein while he was hanging out on top of his food bowl, and she took some great photos. We thought it would be fun to write some witty captions to describe what Frankenstein might be up to.

Here are some of the great captions we wrote.

Independent Reading with Mrs Kane.

On Friday morning, Mrs Kane came to Room 3 to help us with our independent reading or Read To Self.

We had so much fun reading our own choice of books and sitting and reading anywhere we liked in our classroom. She taught us some new skills we can practice during independent reading. One new thing she taught us was about stamina, which is about building up our skills in reading so we can read for longer and become pro-readers!

Thank you Mrs Kane for coming to Room 3 to help us with our independent reading! We look forward to seeing you again in two weeks time!

Hairy Maclary's creative frogs

This term our class has been learning about frogs! Miss Cameron decided that the Hairy Maclary's reading group could draw our own frogs. We read about frogs in our Junior Journal and we read a story about a class who were learning about dinosaurs and how long they were. We thought it could be fun to measure and draw our own creative frogs with chalk on the concrete.

Have a look at all the frogs we created below...
