20140624-095823.jpg We made story maps using pictures from You Choose. We love this book as it helps us to use our imagination to make up our own stories.
Can you use one of these story maps to make up your own story? You can either be an author and write your own story or you can be a story teller and tell someone else your story using different voices for different characters. I would love to see and hear some of your stories…

This is our tree house. We found a giant birds nest with some seeds in. We are going to find out how we can feed the birds using these seeds.
Can you think of how we can do this? We will need instructions.

We had to clean it up just like the nurses (we were glad there was no mouldy food or maggots!)
