Who Wants to Be a Meanie?



Meanies all do mean things
Meanies all do mean things
Meanies all do mean things
That's what meanies do.

They also sleep in rubbish tins, drink their bath water, eat old bubble gum and..... when they come to school they eat our pens and pencils and paint themselves all over.

Here is Prea's story about her impressions of Meanies:


              Meanies.
               By Prea .

Meanies are smelly and have hairy armpits. They wash in mud puddles  and they drink their bath water.       
Who wants to be a Meanie?        NOT ME!

ElGregoe, The Magician

ElGregoe was amazing and did some fantastic tricks. He also taught us some very important ways to have a happy time at school. He taught us big words like


Resilience
Honesty
Caring
Respect
Contributing
Abbie got to go up and helped ElGregoe when he was doing some tricks.
We wrote some stories the next day about what we liked best:

I like ElGregoe.  He was talking to the bee. He said,”Don’t let the balloon go.” I laughed when he did.

I like ElGregoe. He got the bird out of the big box when he clicked his fingers.


Our Class Treaty

On Monday of last week we all signed our class Treaty. We invited Mr Parsons to come and we read our treaty to him. Our treaty is a list of ideas we all came up with to make our classroom a safe and happy place. Here is what we decided:
*We will walk when inside the classroom.
*We will use quiet voices inside.
*We will always tell someone if we have to go out of the classroom.
*We will share our games and activities in class. (But not our lunches!)
*We will be kind to each other.
*We will do what the teacher says.

We also read a very good story called "The Tree Hut Treaty".
Here is our class poem about our treaty:

                                                    Class Treaty

Here are some rules for us to share
We decided they are true and fair. 
We’ve called it a treaty
We’ve signed our names
We hope other classes might do the same.

So if there’s a problem as we work or play
We can all solve it in our special way. ded they are true and fair.
