Busy Bees in Room 9a

This week we went down to our 
Sunnyhills Bee house to look at the hives and the busy bees in action. Then we learnt about how the bees make the honey. Did you know they literally vomit up the nectar from bee to bee until it is sticky and syrupy. Eeeeeew gross!

Mr Smith was even kind enough to dress up in his bee keeper suit for us to look at. 
He looked like he was about to head into space! 





The honey from our school hives has recently been harvested and made into our very own 'Sunny Honey'. 
Aren't we all clever....bees included!

Mrs Daniel is super proud of the honey our bees produce. 


We even did some awesome writing about the bees. 

Check out this piece by William which he did all by himself.

Autumn Days Artwork

We have been looking at Autumn leaves.

We printed Autumn leaves using beautiful Autumn colours. 
.





We also used Autumn colours to finger paint Autumn leaves onto our arm trees.





How beautiful are these trees?

Shapes are all around us

We started by creating repeating patterns.




Then, we created pictures using 2D shapes and sticking them onto paper to create our picture. 






Then we got REALLY clever and drew around shapes top create our pictures, and we coloured in. 





We are getting very clever at naming and describing 2D shapes.
