Tinker time with Beads

As part of our Tinker time we get to work with Hama beads. Our focus this time round was to create a design that celebrates " The Year of the Pig" Oh so cute!! However as they used up all the pink beads because it was tricky to make a small version, we are now going to design Butterflies to compliment our Arts Week art work. 

Spaghetti and Marshmallow Structures

 Our Friday challenge this week was to work with a buddy to make a cube and pyramid using marshmallows and spaghetti noodles. The idea was to create a stable structure. Next time we hope to have more marshmallows so that we can design and build taller and bigger structures whilst keeping them stable. 

Playing String Games

We have discovered that String games are played both in Chinese and Maori culture. Ashton is our class expert and he taught us a neat trick.
