Week 7 - 4th May

​Hello again/Shwmae pawb.  Hope you had a great weekend. 
This week our learning activities will be based on the book Where The Wild Things Are
Picture
In 1963, Maurice Sendark wrote the picture book Where The Wild Things Are. In the story Max, on the night he wore his wolf suit went on a magical journey to the land of the Wild Things and became the King of these strange creatures. Eventually. he missed home and made the journey back to his bedroom, where it all began.
Listen to the story below
In the story, there are many strange creatures that have never been seen before.

Here is a new creature I managed to create. I called it a Rhiswanzebtah. It is a mix of four different animals:
rhinos, swans, zebras and cheetahs
​which gives it its name
