Creative Costumes

We've been busy practising our item and creating our costumes for the end-of-year Celebration of Learning.
We've been using the Key Competencies of 
Participating and Contributing, 
and Relating to Others 
to get the job done.

Butterflies ...




a sun ...





fairy wands ...


a dog bone ...



a toadstool ...



worms ...


a fly in a web ...


ideas!



Are you intrigued by our costumes and props?

  1. Dear B4,

    I am quite intrigued by your costumes and props! They all look quite professional! I hope that you will be sharing your play. I would love to see it!

    As they say in show business, break a leg! (Do they say that in New Zealand?)

    Your friend,
    Mrs. Y♥llis

    4. @ Ryan,

      I can tell that you have been working hard on your costume. It looks fabulous! How did you end up being a spider?

      Our class does dance, but just for fun and no performances yet.

      @ Bonnie,

      Happy birthday! I bet you will make a wonderful flower! I look forward to seeing the video! I will show it to my third graders.
      We are out of school this week for Thanksgiving. It is a national holiday.

      @ Riley,

      Good luck with your busy bee! I look forward to seeing your video!

      Warmly,

  2. Dear B4,
    I think our costumes are so beautiful because I think we are as good as professional artists!
    I think Anika and Bonnie did a very good job on the mushroom.
    The butturflies are as good as the mushroom!
    We will have a lot of fun when it is our turn on the stage.
    Sincerely,
    Taylah

      We do have an end-of-the-year program. It is in June when our school year ends. It is a program with a lot of songs, but no costumes. Too bad for us!

      I look forward to seeing your video and sharing it with my third grade students here in California.

      Sincerely,
      Mrs. Y♥llis

    but we need a dog bone so we made one. It is made out of
    newspaper and plastic bags,tape. It was fun.

      Thank you for your reply to me! What a good blogger you are!

      I love dogs! In fact, I have a funny yellow lab named Buck. Mrs. McKenzie can show you a picture on our 365 if you'd like.

      Bark! Bark! And best of luck with you play!

  7. Dear Mrs. Yollis,
    Sometimes we say break a leg but not very often. Thankyou very much for commenting on our costumes. Our teacher said that we are professional artists. We will be putting our dance on so you can see what we have done. I hope you will like it.
