BOYS AND THEIR BUILDING

During our first 2 weeks at school, we have been earning FREE TIME MINUTES. To earn a free time minute we all have to be on task and we have to be a 5 star listener. If Mrs R sees that we are doing these things we all earn a FREE TIME MINUTE (we can also lose a FREE TIME MINUTE if we are not doing these things). At the end of the day we count up our FREE TIME MINUTES and that is how long we get for free time before we go home.



Some boys in our class have been using their free time to build roads, buildings and garages with the wooden blocks, while others have been using the Mobilo to make cars, rockets, aeroplanes and spaceships.



They have been working cooperatively to create their objects and then both groups have been combining their creations.



When it is time to pack up the boys have been very keen to keep their creations but because we have limited space in our room they decided that they could take a photo with the digital camera.



Here are some of their creations in Smilebox and an Animoto.

Dear 2R Shining Stars,

It looks like your students like to do many of the same things in free time that we like to do in our class in California.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Levy
