Maths Like A Pirate - Day 4

Can you build a tower without a hammer and nails?
We are taking up the challenge of building the tallest tower using only marshmallows, toothpicks and collaboration. Chocolate fish to the best collaborators and the tallest tower.

Helping Hands

In Skippers during Concept we are discussing how we use our hands to help our community.
We did some hand print painting last week.
Now we're collaborating in our groups to talk about how we help each other.
Some people are the writers. Some people are the speakers.

Flight to Rio

We turned Skippers into an airport today. We had a check in counter, passports, boarding passes, security, stewards and even a plane! We also had a big queue. It was so much fun role playing.
