Story Time With 2M at Aspley

• This term, we have been learning about Australia,
  its features and animals. The children sent a
  koala called Koko all around Australia to their
  family and friends. Koko had his photo taken at
  different places all around Australia and these
  photos have been displayed in the classroom.
  Koko fever has taken over our class with the
  children constantly talking about where Koko has
  been. The children have written narratives about
  an adventure that Koko has had. They had to
  write a plan with a problem and resolution and
  then use this plan to construct their own
  narratives. I am really pleased with their
  stories and am delighted to share them with you.
  Please enjoy reading the childrens stories as
  much as they have enjoyed writing them.
• Happy reading,
