Hi to all our readers,
As we set off to explore the great books we have to share, could you tell us a little about yourselves?
It would be great if you could send us some drawings or photos of your school and tell us something that you think is special about it.
Perhaps you could try adding speech bubbles like Scott Tulloch did in "I am not a worm." (You can see I had a little try myself on this page.)
Looking forward to meeting all the classes who are joining us for the great #NZReadAloud!

A simple worksheet that uses speech bubbles to show the different stages of a butterfly lifecycle. Each speech bubble starts with "I am not a worm"and then leaves space for students to describe what each stage actually is called. Ellie Mackwood Wairau Valley Special School
