Freeville Room 6

Shadow Puppets...

Room 6 is looked at making shadow puppets with a lovely puppet maker called Juliet. We made shadow puppets for a story 'There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Fly.' Juliet let us put on a puppet show.

Last week we went to a puppet show. Juliet made all these puppets and the name was Thumbs Up Puppetry. The bit I liked was when the farmer was chasing Peter around. I liked it when the lady made a pie and the farmer was hanging down. It was funny! By Chloe

Finger Puppets…

What other finger puppets could you make? Could you make some finger puppets using recycled materials?

Air force Museum...

What interesting photos Mrs Douglas has taken of your trip to the Air force Museum. What was your favorite activity?

We went to the Air force Museum and dressed up in a pilot suit. I saw a plane with a broken wing. We made planes and we did a scavenger hunt.

Last Wednesday Room 6 went to the Christchurch Air force Museum and met a nice man called Chris. He showed us around the museum and we got to see a wall of honour. It has lots of names on it. It’s because lots of people that were in the Air force had died. Chris took us to his classroom and show us a video. Then he made us dress up in kid size pilot suits with a vest and a safety helmet. Then we had morning tea. We did a treasure hunt and then we left.
