Best Pictures 2007

For Oral Language today we looked at the 2007 Awards of the Best Pictures On The Internet. We loved all the pictures but our favourite was the “Special Mention” winner.

We sorted ourselves into 3 groups and then we tried to create our own face using our hands. It was lots of fun. We then took pictures of our creation and we had a class vote to decide our favourite.
