BOOK CHARACTER DAY





We had a Book Week last week. On Friday the 28th it was Dress Up Day. We all dressd up as a favourite book character. In Room 12 it was funny because Mr Beggs because was dressed up as Grandpa Joe of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. All the classes came to the senior syndicate to put a gold coin on a picture of a daffodil because it was also Daffodil Day, when we raised money for cancer. Then later we walked around the court and we had to freeze in a music game. Miya and some others won the game. Look here and see what these people had dressed up as. Kane was dressed as Cat in the Hat. Millie was dressed as Puss in Boots. Max was dressed as Captain Underpants. Kathryn was dressed as Jasmine from Aladdin. Heath was dressed up as a witch from Harry Potter.

FROM PAGE TO SCREEN



Page to screen is about the books that get turned into movies, like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. In room 12 we are focusing on Roald Dahl books. Both Charlie and the Chocolate Factory movies ended differently from the book. Some characters were different like Charlie, Mr Willy Wonka and some inventions like the elevator that goes around the factory. Max likes the part when Veruca Salt was pushed down the chute. Brandon's favourite part is when Grandma Georgina said "I think there is someone at the door" when the elevator smashed through the roof.
We have made posters about new products that we have invented. We have learnt quite a lot about Roald Dahl. The pictures in his books are cool. They are done by Quentin Blake.

KIDS LOGOS



All the kids designed their own logo. On the logo we put our initials and something special to us. They were photographed so we could use them on the computer. Some of us drew our logos on Kidpix.
