All Together - Friendship

This week the Life Education van is visiting our school. We are learning how to be good friends. This is Payton's story about our first visit to the van.

Today we saw Harold the giraffe. We watched a movie about him. He is cute. We heard him eating breakfast. We heard him brushing his teeth! He is big. We saw him bike riding in the movie. He had a rabbit friend and a possum friend and he had a big house. His door is shaped like a giraffe.

Magic Magnets

We are learning about magnets. Stirling came to school and showed us some magic tricks. We loved trying out some of the tricks ourselves.

Robyn Belton's Visit

Robyn Belton came to school. She read about Greedy Cat and Herbert. When she spun a picture, the picture changed. If you looked quickly you would see the fish was in Greddy Cat's tummy.

We went to see Robyn Belton. She read us stories. She read us Greedy Cat. I like Robyn Belton because she is an illustrator. I like the pictures. She did some magic. Greedy Cat was on the front side.

Today we went to see Robyn Belton. She drew us a Greed Cat picture. It was cool seeing Bobyn Belton's picture. I loved it. She spun a necklace and a fish went into Greedy Cat's stomach. The fish was on the other side of the necklace as well. It was cool.
