Making Wide Mouthed frog booklets - our own versions!

On Friday we started our booklets but our booklets were with a difference .... they were touch and feel booklets! 

I chose four group leaders based on the work of the previous day. The leaders ; Josh, Adenika, Dipika and Lukas (headed one group) chose the children they wanted in their groups. This was after we had, once again, reiterated what the main principles are when working in a group. Each child was responsible for meeting a South African animal. (The original story we read to them had animals that were all from Australia!) They found the writing difficult but with help they managed to come up with some lovely ideas.

Having written their part of the story they created their own picture using various mediums : sucker sticks, tooth picks, cardboard, cotton wool, sea shells and so forth. They had a fabulous morning and when it was all put together the books looked FANTASTIC! 
( We still have to do the cover......tomorrow ?!)
