Netbook reflection


At the start of the year Room 6 was very lucky to get black, shiny, brand new netbooks! I felt happy and excited  because we learned to type insted of handwriting. We learned to post comments on other  people’s blogs.

I’m really sad because we aren’t getting our netbooks in the holiday but we are still going to use them next year!

Scrunching the Cardboard

smooth cloth.

Adding Colour

Finally, we started adding colour to our tapa cloth. We used the black and brown pastels. My tapa cloth looked like soft cloth and I was excited about how it looked
