Bookworms in the library this afternoon!

NZ Sign Language!

Today we learnt some sign language from Dennis. We learnt a lot and we can teach you some signs at home. This week is NZ Sign Language Awareness week. We enjoyed our free taster session.

Library Roadshow

Today we were lucky enough to be entertained by the Christchurch City Librarians as they read stories and acted them out. They read with great expression!

The Three Brothers

Today we enjoyed the Giraffe, Pelly and Me reading group perform their story The Three Brothers. They had the task to make a prop and then they decided to turn the story into a play for us. They made us laugh! Super acting and reading Harry, Cooper, Lily and Sophie!

Up, Up and Away!

Today we finished our paintings of the house that was attached to big balloons and floated away just like in the movie 'Up'! We dipped actual balloons in paint to make our balloons. Earlier in the week we had written our opinions of whether this had really happened or not, and whether we thought it was safe or not. Some people thought it hadn't really happened and some did. Many of us thought it was unsafe because the balloons could be popped by birds! At the end we watched a video of it and it did really happen...by National Geographic staff in California!

Flying House!

Jessica's Crystals

Today Jessica brought in her salt crystals that she made at home. It was really interesting to hear how they formed!
