Spring Fever Hits Room 6

We have been talking about all the exciting things that happen when Springtime arrives, like baby lambs being born. Farmer Lukas brought his lamb "Otto" to school and we all stroked him. Otto had a soft, curly, wool coat and we loved stroking him. We were surprised when we touched him, to feel how warm and silky he felt. He talked to us too and we got to feed him milk. His tail went crazy when he was drinking the milk. Farmer Lukas said that meant that Otto was happy.We have been studying Nursery Rhymes and we changed "Mary Had A Little Lamb", here is our new poem

Lukas had a little lamb, little lamb, little lamb,
Lukas had a little lamb
he brought to Parnell School
It made Room 6 tip-toe quietly, stroke him gently and feed him milk.
Otto"s tail went wagging fast
to say he loved us all.

Farmer Lukas said  he was happy, he was happy, he was happy
Famer Lukas said he was happy
to bring his lamb to school.

The room 6 children 
laughed and squealed, laughed and squealed, laughed and squealed.
The room 6 children laughed and stroked, and wouldn't come back inside.
Mrs Browne was there too, was there too, was there too,
Mrs Browne was there too and
loved it too!

Yesterday we planted our class garden with Spring flowers. They are Petunias, Primroses and Cyclamens.
We googled how to prepare the garden soil first by completing a google search and finding a You Tube clip showing us how to do it. Some of us did not like feeling the mud and seeing the worms, but we carried on and now our garden looks fantastic. We can't wait for our flowers to grow and bloom.

Enjoy your Springtime weekend, maybe you could all plant something at home this weekend.
