St John's

On Monday the 2nd April 2017 Totara class had a ambulance day. First we made cookies. We put in 350g of butter. Next we put in icing sugar and corn flower. Then we put plain flour in. After that we mixed the dough. Then we had to make heart shapes from the dough. Lastly we put the dough in the oven and then we waited for 30 minutes then we came back to class with the cookies. Then we packed the cookies in a plastic box and sent them to ST John. Then we made paper hearts and we put our own designs. We were only allowed to use green and yellow because we got to choose what colour we used so we all chose green and yellow.

On Monday we were researching things about mouse traps.we had to draw a mouse trap and make instructions how to make our mouse trap design.some people needed to use wood,bottles,hinge's and other things.then watched a little clip. They uses a bottle,a bottle lid and a coat hanger it was a easy trap to make.Also we got a postcard that we had to fill in and little postcards that we could colour in and write a sentence on. We had to write a descriptive sentence about the playground and the traffic on the highway.This is a mouse trap that we drew .

Thease are some post cards
