Fridge Magnets Constructing our fridge magnets was a lot of fun. As a class we constructed a butterfly magnet together following instructions carefully.We then drew an individual design on our whiteboards and thought about the materials we might need to create our own magnet.

Room 3 listened really well to the story about the Rainbow Fish and then they discussed how they could be a good friend. We talked about using 'kind words,' 'kind hands' and 'kind feet,' as well as how we could invite other children to join in our games. We also talked about what it is like to work as a team and ways we could do that in room 3. After that we designed our own fish and underwater scene using pastels on black paper. The large pictures are now up on display in our classroom. We hope you like them. The following are photos of them made into our calendar art which are now available to order.
