Olympics

Wow it really has been a long time since I last wrote, I have loadssss to catch up on.
Last Saturday we had an Olympic day!
They watched the opening ceremony recording while making our Olympic flag.


They loved it and at moments were really engrossed.
Then we decorated T-Shirts for their 'team'

and put the finished rings on the wall.

and then we played...



Strawberries for half time snack and interviews
more playing


who can pull the funniest face whilst jumping!
and then chocolate trophies!







Hannah is already preparing for the winter olympics!

Hannahs teepee tutorial

In Hannah's latest national geographic magazine there was directions for making a big teepee, Hannah wanted to make one but we didn't have the right sticks so she decided to make a small one. As she was making it she said, "I know why don't we take pictures each step of the way and then put it on the internet so that everyone knows how to make a teepee"
Errr I think we maybe use internet tutorials to often haha!

anyway here it is, she set it all up and took all the pictures (except the last ones!) Now she is going to tell me what to write!


Step 1:
Get 6 sticks and they need to be the same size


Step 2:
Put a rubber band around the top of them all

Step 3:
Stand it up with the big bit for the door, open it out.
Step 4:
Get a piece of material and some string
Step 5: Fold the material into a triangle but not all the way to the top
Step 6: Put the material onto the sticks and then tie string round it

Step 7: Then tie feathers on
Step 8: You can put a whole campsite up.

Have fun with your teepee


I'll hopefully catch up with the rest of our goings on tonight!!
