Another One Down the Hole

There's something about loose teeth and my parents' house in Luton. Alathea's lost both of hers there at different times. Sophia swallowed her first loose tooth while there a few years ago, and now Alathea's swallowed one, too! After her current gap was discovered, Alathea calmly informed Grandma, "My tooth is probably in the sewer by now..." Fortunately mommies and grandmas still pay up for gappy smiles, even if there's nothing to show for it under the pillow!

Hard at Work

Here are a few of the things the girls and their classmates have been doing this half term:

A two-wheeled, convertible bus designed and made by Alathea

A class collage of a tuk-tuk, inspired by a story Alathea's class has been studying

An advert, written by Sophia, to attract visitors to the Eiffel Tower

A scale drawing of the Eiffel Tower, by Sophia

Sophia's group's model of the Eiffel Tower, made from tape, foil, and straws
