For Room on the Broom we drew and colored pictures of what 5 things we would take on our magic broom stick with us. For Stick Man we imagined what 2 things we would do with an excellent if we'd found one and what would come next for Stick Man and his family. Finally, for Zog we made our very own dragon masks!

The grade 5 students have been been studying poetry this week so they took a look at a poem by Roald Dahl -'Television'. They listened to the poem and discussed it's meaning, the author's main idea was that television was bad for kids and they should read books instead. The poem was divided into parts and each student had a part to re-write and illustrate.
