English Hook 🐝Motivate Crew

4th March 2024Joshua Meade

In crew this morning we worked on patience to complete a very tricky challenge, but had lots of fun!

In English as part of our new text and unit about instructions. We followed some instructions to make a Bee Hotel! #LovePlover

As part of our new writing unit, we are learning to write instructions. Today, we practiced following some instructions on how to make a bee hotel. First we collected some sticks to create the middle section. Then we made our bed hotels in mini crews before heading outside to put them in our eco-garden.
