Day 5

Today, we make MIND MAP sheets for ourselves. These Mind Maps help us to place all our drawings and ideas down in one place. We can write words or make more drawings to help tell the stories we are imagining. We roll our cubes onto our Mind Map sheets and record  the symbols, making our stories as we go.

JUNIOR & SENIOR INFANTS....

We are going to make Giant Cartoon Stories, Toni says that she'll help us. So we get writing and drawing on our Mind Map sheets to see what stories we are going to tell...

Junior & Senior Infants rolling their Story Cubes,
