Term 1 2014 Week 5/6

                                 
                   When is a Scarescrow ... not a Scarecrow?
Forest Kindy kids have been fossicking around Ivy Russell Reserve for the last two weeks looking for just the right stick to make our Sthld A & P show Scarecrow.  Tks to Mike Bailey (Megan's Dad) for sending through the catalogue & inspiring us to design, make & create our very own Kindy Scarecrow. Good finding Cohen & Teresa ... now what else will we need ... something for eyes, nose, mouth, eyebrows!!! Let's go hunting!!!

Gifts from Papatuanuku ...

Back @ Kindy we have been busy designing, drawing & dialoguing what is special about a Scarecrow & what do they do?  Rebecca (Reliever) introduced a neat 'Scarecrow' game outside (adapted from Candlesticks) & found a neat poem to share with everyone & Judy introduced 'I'm a Dingle Dangle Scarecrow' song.  Tks Tom Collie for sharing your Scarecrow book with us.  Has anyone else got any Scarecrow stories we can borrow?

Some TLC from Emma Cubitt

And some TLC from Sophie Eade

And with some final touches ... our Scarecrow is complete!!! And not before time ... we need to enter him today!!! If you are heading along to the A&P Show this weekend ... keep a eye out for our 'scary' Scarecrow!!!

Now that's a 'scary' Scarecrow ...

Well Done everyone ... we will have to find a special place in our playground for 'Scarecrow' after the A&P show.  Oh ... and maybe a name!  Any suggestions?  Leave a comment below ...
