Term 4 2015

Our term began with us looking at musical instruments. Then we had to design and construct our own.
I decided to make an electric guitar.
I am checking to see if my guitar will make a sound

My electric guitar needs speakers!

Here we are ready to perform in Junior assembly



We chose the music for our performance.... The William Tell Overture by Rossini.

Knitting at school! Mrs H couldn't believe that I could be a successful knitter!

My Gran taught me

Everyone was surprised to see that I could knit!

I was GREAT!

My last writing in Room 2 was a letter to Santa

And this is my last writing in my book. Mrs Hawkie likes it when I add detail. I can use simple punctuation. I have my own spelling book to edit my writing.
