Making a greenhouse

Last week on Monday Room 18 made a greenhouse. First we got given a plastic bag and four cotton balls.We wet  a piece of paper towel and the cotton balls. Then we placed the paper towel folded in
the plastic bag and the cotton balls then all of us got given our pinto beans! We placed our beans
in our bag. Now we make our greenhouse! First we got an A4 piece of paper. We traced a square,
then we drew the dome or the triangle roof. Miss Lister cut out everything so we can decorate it.
When we were finished we put it on the window with blue tack.

Speed and agility

Yesterday we went to Youth Town . We learned about speed and agility. Speed is moving fast. Agility is turning, jumping and moving fast. We did a warm up first. There were hurdles, ladders and agility poles. How you play the warm up is you use your balls of your feet to get through the ladder. To get
over the hurdles you do big bunny hops. To get through the agility poles you move like crab. The
second game we played is cat and mouse. There are lots of mice and cats. The cats try to catch the mice. If the  mouse makes it the mice gets the points ... but if the cat tags you the cats get the points.
I felt great learning something new!

A plural is something that is more than one.
