Holly's ribbon.

Yesterday   I  got a   Ribbon   From lynndale amateur  athletic club because I came  2nd in a running race. I was really happy. There were lots of people in the race. Theo was in the race and he came third. 

Theo's super hero vehicle

This is my 3D super hero model. I used Lego. It took about 5 days to make!

Batmans helicopter can shoot bullets. There are weapons in there too. The propeller can spin anyway cos it can go up.

Do you have any cool Lego like mine?

Habits of Mind

We have been looking at habits of mind.
We are focusing on being creative, imaginative and innovative.
This is like Tony Starke, the iron man. We can think up good ideas or different ways of doing things. We could create them and make them. Sometimes we can change things to make them better. This is innovation.
We looked at some cool inventions and talked about them. Next we will create things ourselves!

Tony Starke - Cool inventor!
