Spinach's visit to Room 19

We were very excited when Sophie and her mum brought in a large bird cage.  Inside was a tiny baby sparrow.  It had been found, unable to fly, so Sophie and her family decided to look after it until it became strong enough to go back into the wild.  They named the sparrow 'Spinach'.

Spinach (the sparrow) was very cute.  He was even quite happy for us all to have a turn holding him!   It was  wonderful to be able to look at a sparrow so closely.  Thanks to Sophie's mum for bringing him to school.



Introduction

This is my first post for 2013.   I was busy over the holidays moving rooms and setting up a learning environment for my new group of Beachlands Learners.   I am now teaching in the Year 5&6 area and have had two awesome weeks getting to know these fabulous young learners.  I am looking forward to sharing their learning with you.
