Friday Fun Day...Again...

Good afternoon,

Or should I say wet afternoon, 'cause boy it is. Well, compared to the weather we have been having over the last couple of weeks.

Before the rain set in, we played some Target Practice Maths...



The idea is that two been bags are thrown onto a target, the numbers landed upon are added up, and the sums are written on the court.

The rest of the morning was spent making signs that would protect our Special Place.


Then, after lunch...

Thank you for the food we eat,
Yum yum.
Thank you for the friends we meet,
Such Fun.
Thank you for the birds that sing-a-ling-a-ling,
Thank you God for everything. Amen.

...we watched a bit of Vege Tales...


...and then had some free time.

Towards the end of Developmental Time I had this brilliant idea to get those who wanted to to sit in a circle and have the rats run around within the circle. I had read that that is what a Year 5 class does at the end of the day, so I thought, "Why not?"

Turns out that rats can find the smallest gaps and scoot straight through within seconds of being put on the floor!

So, after a couple of minutes fishing them out from the top of the second cage (under the big cage), primarily by convincing Rattie to follow Rat into the cage itself, I brought the cage, with rats, into the circle instead!


Ha!

They're off visiting Eliza for the weekend, so they'll enjoy that. So long as Henry plays nice with them! Woof woof! :-)

Have a good weekend,

Mr Grant
