Superheroes

And these amazing superheros came to visit us on our last day of school. 

Happy Easter everyone safe travels and holidays

and then the trolls arrived.....

Although we had 3 girl superheroes the rest of Kereru 2 girls stretched their dance moves and their sentences with the 'dreamwork trolls'

Samples of Girls work coming soon.....

Exciting Superhero Writing

We know a lot about superheros
Batman, Spiderman, Captain Amercia, Flash, Hulk smash Green lantern, Iron man......
We talked about the powers we would have if we combined 2 superheros together .....

First we got our writers hats and our superhero splats - and  we planned describing our superheroes

We drew our pictures and described what our superheros looked like, wore and could do... 

 We designed our own personal 'superhero shields'

and our superheroes transport
