Our magic beans!!!!

We are enjoing to story of Jack and the bean stalk this week and have got our own magic beans in class... we have been using our imagination to think what our magic beans could grow into!!

We came up with all sorts of ideas from a Ben Ten world (Jacob H), to strawberry fields (Shannon), a King's palace (Alex) and many more!!

Here we are using the story to lead our play....

What could these magic beans grow into?

Use our imagination...

Playdough beanstalks!!

More playdough beanstalks!!

Jack and the Giant! Fee Fi Fo Fum!!

What's at the top of your beanstalk?

Gold coins for the cow....

That's a great beanstalk! It's really standing up!

Using the polydron to make sunflowers.


The start of what ended up being a huge beanstalk!!

Lovely flowers!

Measuring our beanstalks...we got this idea from one of our quadblogging buddies!

Lots of measuring going on here!

Whose is the longest?

Wow getting longer!!

Well that's ended up being a complicated beanstalk!!!!

  2. Dear FS2,

    WOW! We wish we were in your class for this activity.

    Nicholas liked the complicated beanstalk. We read a book today and it looked like the plant in the book.

    Tess thought it was a good idea to use the paperclips.

    Max thought the longest beanstalk was the coolest!

    It's our hometime now. We will come back tomorrow to see what you've done.

    From Prep and Miss P
