Week 9 Jump Jam exercising from home

Hi Room 23!

I hope you are all well.  Mrs Edmonds has been busy baking, eating, cleaning and doing craft with my children at home.  How lucky are we to have mainly beautiful sunny days!

I have attached a link with some very cool dance moves to help you get your body moving and grooving while at home.

Wk 5 Big Book Huggles' Cold and our colorful artwork.

During week 5 Rm 23 read the book Huggles' Cold.
This story was about Huggles and how when he got sick, his belly button would change from yellow to blue.  His friends and teacher decided to help him by showing empathy and kindness.
Rm 23 students coloured in Huggles' with crayon and dye.  They each gave me two sentences about Huggles' and we added it to our colourful artwork.
Come in and let the children share with you their beautiful artwork.




Learning to use the dye and the brush.

Great finishing off Anna!

Spot the sick and the healthy Huggles.

Can you come and find your Huggles' artwork and read your sentences?
