Bill's New Frock

In Anne Fines story, Bill's new frock, Bill wakes up one morning looks in the mirror and sees that he is wearing a frock. The book shows how people, who think he is a girl, now treat him differently. We discussed (carefully)a big problem. Which toilet would he go to. Most of us decided he would go to the boys toilet. We then did cloze procedure on the text (predicted missing words).
We used our polygons mind map to explore the properties of shapes. In our groups we were given a description of a shape. From the clues we had to the shapes. Try this one: what shape has no straight lines and no right angles? Peace made up this clue for a shape: this shape is in the circle family and has been squeezed?
We made some calligrams on computers. The calligram below was made by Reanne and Connor.
