Animal Alphabet

Room 5 have been working on their presentation skills. They made an animal alphabet presentation using some of the skills they learned, such as matching colours to photos, using shapes for text boxes and using different clear fonts. They also discovered some interesting animals along the way! by Mya and Inotia by Shannon and Harlem by Jorja by DJae and Harry

How do scissors work?

Today a group of writers worked with Miss Thomas to write an explanation about how scissors work. They remembered that an explanation needs to have an introduction (beginning), some ideas in order and a conclusion (ending). Have a read of their amazing explanation! 

How do scissors work?

Scissors are a tool that we use for cutting. We can cut paper, material, fingernails, cardboard and hair.   Scissors have handles and two blades.

To hold scissors, you put your thumb in the top hole of the handle and your next two fingers in the bottom hole of the handle. Then you open the blades by moving your thumb and fingers away from each other. Next, put the paper in between the blades and push the handles together. Move the paper around as you cut it. You need to keep opening and closing the blades.

Scissors are a very useful tool.
