Alice's Family Challenge

Hi, I'm Alice and for my book week family challange I chose the book 'Amy and Louis' written by Libby Gleeson and illustrated by Freya Blackwood. I like this book because of the relationship between the two friends and how Louis misses her so much that he decided to call to her.

The book is about two children called Amy and Louis (which you probably already gathered from the title) and they do everything together. But one day Amy moves to the other side of the world.

The base of my world is a balloon that has been taped into a sphere-type shape. Then we papier mached a newspaper layer on, and then a blue layer on, and then the countries on. It was difficult to get the shape of the countries just by ripping the paper, but we worked it out in the end.

I had lots of fun making my Amy and Louis world, and I hope other people enjoy looking at it too.

Show and Tell

Last term I brought my dog Ferb to school for the class to see. Ferb is a covoodle (caveiler king charles spainel/poodle) and in the photo he is 11 weeks old. We were originally going to call him Franklin, but we all agreed that ferb was a better name. Some people think that we got the name 'Ferb' from furball, but we got the name from a TV show. Ferb now knows how to sit, drop and come. Ferb is now 4 months old, and he never stops growing!

Hat Parade

On March the 29th we started to make hats for a random partner, with Miss Francisco. We were given materials to make them but first we had to design them. Some people made top hats, others made caps and some people made masks. It was a bit difficalt at points but in the end all the hats looked magnificent! On the 30th of March we made a video of our hat parade. We had individual photos and we each had a movie about why we made the has the way we made them. I think that everybody would agree that it was fantastic!
