Balloonatics!

Balloons at Dairy Flat

Balloonatics kindly donated about 600 balloons to our Junior rooms on Monday. The Creepy Crawlies had some fun playing with the balloons and balancing them on their heads! 


We then decided to count the balloons we had in our class! We wrote down all the colours and how many were in the bunch! Then we had to count is 2's and we discovered that there were 12 Balloons in a bunch! Then we realised that we had 7 bunches so we found a way to add the numbers that made it easy! We sounded out how to spell the colour words using our alphabet sounds.



We then decided to build a tower with the balloons to see how tall we could make it!






Then we hung them on the wire in the class to make our classroom colourful and we wrote about what we did!
