2nd class have been very busy doing Christmas art and craft over the past week!
We made Christmas tree decorations using different coloured and sized buttons and wire. We ordered the buttons from smallest to largest and strung them together using wire.
We then came up to decorate our class Christmas tree by hanging our decorations group by group!
Take a look at our class Christmas tree below to see how they turned out!
We also completed directed drawings of Gingerbread Houses and decorated them.
Take a look at some of our Winter Wonderland paintings too!
