Our Winter Wonderland

We all rugged up in our warm clothes and went outside.  Snow all over our adventure playground was a very unusual sight!  Some of us tasted the snow and others just wanted to run around in it.

Pets Visit Normandale School

We all loved Pat's guinea pigs.  We had turns holding them.  They are tame and friendly.

Bridget's goat Toby and her kid Perky who was only eleven days old.  Perky's hair was lovely and soft.  Mum was quite anxious and kept calling for her kid.

Ciaran brought his two day old lamb named Ivory to school.  We all thought that she was very cute.

Fractions

We are learning about fractions.  Today we made fairy bread to show how you you can make equal shares of a piece of bread.  We know that both sides should be the same size so we cut down the middle to make two halves.  To make four quarters we cut it in half again.

We buttered our bread.

Next we sprinkled on hundreds and thousands.

We cut the bread in the middle to make two halves.

Two children could each have a half.

It was then cut into quarters.

They tasted yummy!
