Happy Easter from Room 2!

Room 2 wish everyone a happy Easter and we hope you all have a fantastic holiday break.
Remember to check out Mrs Lunn's blog to keep updated with her travels - post a comment and ask an interesting question! 
I will be linking a new padlet page to the blog soon so that students can add their ideas, thoughts, new experiences or interesting items to it over the holidays. Same password as normal - lets see who remembers it!
Have a great break - be safe, eat lots of chocolate and we'll see you back next term, refreshed and ready for another term of amazing learning!

Storybird

Today we created a class story using Storybird. We focused on creating an interesting story that used the images as a support. We discussed the characteristics of picture books. In our story we decided to use some rhyme and some alliteration. We discovered the difficulty around having the whole story rhyme when we tried to find lots of words that rhymed with mouse! These are some of the decision we have to make as writers.
