Flying in Room 5

Thursday, April 30th, 2009We are having fun learning about stories from around the world. At the moment we are hearing lots about the story of Daedalus and Icarus from Greece. We learned that Icarus didn't listen to his Dad and he flew too close to the sun. This caused the wax on the wings he made to melt, and he fell into the sea. Today we painted nice pictures of Icarus too close to the sun.We are learning lots about flying these days. We made kites on Monday and tried flying them. It is harder to fly kites than it looks, but we had lots of fun with them.

Printed Sheep

Have a look at the lovely printed sheep we made. Can you guess what we used to print the sheep, the heads, the eyes, the grass, the legs and the flowers?
