Dr Seuss Discovery and ..... Crazy Sock Day!

 Even the teachers were ready for our Crazy Sock Day to celebrate Dr Seuss Discovery. 

Dr Seuss' Fox in Socks was our inspiration for our crazy socks.

We also designed our own crazy socks.

We used the Cat in the Hat and his amazing super tall stripy hat to make ....

.... our own stripy Cat in the Hat hats, ....

.... and write 'at' words.


We made The Lorax mustaches ....

 .... cotton ball and pipe cleaner truffula trees ....

.... and planted bean truffula seeds.

Our Horton ears are good for listening ....

.... and helped us practise our cutting skills.

 Then we used them to listen for the Whos from Whoville, located as a speck of dust somewhere on our clover flowers.


Our oobleck or gloop was great fun to play with. Gloop is a non-Newtonian fluid, something that is a solid and a liquid at the same time! Hit the oobleck hard or try to pick it up it acts like a solid, hold it in your hands and it drips slowly through your fingers.

You can make it at home with cornflour and a little water. Mix the water in slowly until it turns into gloop.
