Room 17 MVS 2019

The Magic Box I will put in the box: Two muddy paws from my two dogs Cotton and Rubble, One big shiny star to light up my day, One South African Flag waving in the breeze and two shiny pearls. My box is fashioned by: See through icicles to put on the edges of the lid, The key and lock solid gold, The colour of my box is the colour of light baby pink with golden stars on all four sides The bottom of my box is made from the finest cloud in the world. I shall: Float in my box on the bright blue sea and drift off to an island. Where the sand is golden yellow, and the trees all different colours of green.                      By:Emily Tayla Craven.

My magic box By Sophie I will put in my box… Crisp sparkling white snow, photo of my adorable fuzzy cat, a soft sunset pink coloured blankie, the sunset of the last day and a sterling silver flute that plays the sweetest tune. A silent breeze at the summit on a snowy mountain, a subtle ripple of waves on a wild deep ocean, a secret light blue silk notebook that has all the answers inside, a stalking white tiger, hunting its prey. Tundra, who is my cute soft toy and a cold delicious snow cone. My box is fashioned of… The coldest ice with the whitest quartz, Sapphires from the greatest jewel caves, The inside is lined with the softest midnight blue silk all the way from India, Tiny studded diamonds on the lid spell my name and Holding the box up are mini big bens. I shall… Ice skate on a stretching tundra that glows a silver glow in the moonlight, I will float on the softest cloud onto a mystical mountain And look down on the world ...

Lots of collaborative work going on... Students relating to others... Thinking about what to add... Managing self...
