Toaster
A toaster is a machine that heat up some foods. Most people use the toaster for breakfast to make toast. Which is bread that is kind of cooked.

A toaster looks like a big square with two thick cuts in it. They can come in all shapes, colors and sizes. Some are red some are white. The lever on it is like a big oval. There are four buttons on the top which control how it cooks like if it is a crumpet it will cook in differently to how it cooks bread. There is a little twisty dial that controls how long the bread stays in the toaster. There is a button you can use to pop you're toast up.

We had all sorts of characters like: super heroes, princess, movie stars, animals and of coarse Harry Potter. Each class gets called up on to the stage then we say what we are and what book we are from. We had loads of fun.

For wacky Thursday we come to school as wacky as possible! I had wacky hair colors. Here is a list of some of the things we did to make our self's wacky: Crazy hair color, weird wigs, crazy hair styles, make up and crazy shoes. Even the teachers came wacky! It was even more wacky because we had the school Olympics that day as well. Wacky Olympics! It was real funny.

Buddy reading is when we have our buddy classes come into our hub. My buddy is Milan. Then we read our picture books to them, then they read their book to us. Some people have two buddy's but most of us have one buddy. We read as many books as possible.

This week we have been making our door display. We have chosen the BFG. So we made BFG legs and a bum. Then we got jars and made some dreams. We added food coloring and water into the jars. On the other door we had chocolate. The chocolate is from Charlie and the chocolate factory. Charlie and the chocolate factory is a movie and a book. We cut out candy and chocolate wrappers. We stuck them up on the wall in the walk way.
