The Tortoise and the Hare - Determination

The Tortoise and the Hare

Each week this term we have been learning about one of 

the new Rowandale School Values. 

        Participation

Respect

 Integrity

          Determination

 Empathy

This week the focus was Determination! 

Something that we are very good at in the Determined Dinosaurs. We learnt about the story of the Tortoise and the Hare to help us understand what it really means to show true determination. 

We all want to be like the Tortoise in the story and never 

give up on our goals even when it may seem impossible to 

achieve them. 

Today we had lots of fun making our own Tortoise's! 

Have a look at how we did it... 

 First we coloured in fruit pots using green pastels.

 Next we traced around different shapes to make a pattern for the shell.

Then we glued our shapes onto the shell. 

Finally we traced around a circle and semicircle to make the head and legs for our Tortoise. Everyone did an amazing job and 

not one person gave up!
