Book Week continues….

We spent 45 minutes with author, Phil Cummings today. I’m sure your child has told you all about his engaging talk today. What an entertaining speaker! He told us the stories behind many of his books, showed us his books and even some rough drafts. He answered questions and encouraged them all to write.He even read a story “hot out of the printer” that AP and JC have written together over the last 2 days. He read it about loud to them in the corridor during his lunch break with such enthusiasm and he sang their praises as authors. What an amazing experience for them to cherish.

 

Tasting continues…..

I had grapefruit for my breakfast this morning and thought I should share this delicious experience with my class…..

So we all tried a segment of grapefruit this morning. We decided it was very bitter. Most of the class didn’t like it. I suggested they try it at home with a little sugar sprinkled on it.

Look closely at our facial expressions whilst giving our taste buds a bitter sensation….
