Reptiles

Reptiles and amphibians
We played snakes and ladders.
 We learn to take turns and to be a good loser and a good winner!
Squeeze painting is fun. Hayden and Emma are hard at work.




Hannah tears off pieces from an egg box to make the tortoises shell.

We  made SSSSSSSSSsssssnakes. We rolled up newspaper and threaded cut up rolls to make the snakes.

It was fun painting crocodiles with coffee, tea and lemon juice. We crushed egg shells to make the crocodiles scaly.

We rolled dice and added teeth to the play dough mats. 
Aidan's crocodile has lots of sharp teeth!
Adam made a salt dough crocodile.
 Look at his croc's strong jaws and sharp teeth

Mrs. Bayer came and told us all about chameleons
She brought baby chameleons to show us too.

                         We are always busy at school.
Harriet and Aidan chose very challenging form boards to complete!
                                Well done.         J
