Monday 30th March

Still no visit from Drac!

Drac did not come to visit. We shall have to wait longer until Drac comes to find the plans we have made for a new home for him.

The children of Year Three have been very busy putting ideas together for a new home for Drac. They have also given details of how Drac could travel to his new home. All that remains is for Drac to decide which of the plans he prefers.

All this work was completed as homework whilst, in school the children are completing their wonderful legends. I look forward to sharing these stories on this Blog so that you can enjoy them too.

This is our latest letter. It is rather a long one again. I do hope Drac manages to answer all the questions.

Monday 16th March.

There was no reply from Drac to the letter we had left him on Friday 13th.

This was quite a surprise since each time he had come it was to leave us something on a Monday morning.

This is the letter we left:

This was quite a long letter since there was so much we wanted to ask.

Tuesday 10th March

Drac's third visit.

When I met the children on Tuesday morning they were able to tell me all about Drac's third visit. I took some photos too.

This is what they said:

"When we came in on Monday morning one of our tables had been tipped over with two chairs. There was a chocolate coin on the floor. The table that had the letter on it was pulled out with a gap in the middle.

The dragon on the radiator had been moved. It was upside-down with it's head off the radiator on Christian's box.

Drac drew a picture of himself and left it on the table with our letter. He left answers to our questions. He still wants to be our friend.

Drac wanted to know what a Tooth Fairy was. He doesn't lose his teeth like us. They grow and grow and get sharper and sharper. That's weird. Thats why he wanted to know who the Tooth Fairy is."

Today was also very special because we got a parcel from our friends in Japan.

There were sweets. Fruit flavoured.

Letters from each child in the class along with an English translation.

Maps.

The answers to some of the questions we had asked.

Along with photographs of some of their favourite foods.

Friday 27th February.

Finding out about dragons.

Friday was a really busy day. Mrs Garratt finished off the dragons head and the children made the body by cutting out pieces of gold wallpaper and sweet wrappers. The pieces were then stuck to a long piece of wallpaper to make the body of the dragon. It now all hangs on the classroom wall.

We now just need to finish off the tail, unless the children feel that there is more we should add. I have added all their written questions about dragons around the body. One wonderful question asks

"Do dragons want revenge for what St George did?"

We also worked to put together some questions for Drac, just in case she (or he) came back over the weekend.

In the afternoon we used the internet to find out some facts about dragons. We will look at these more carefully on Monday.
