Explorers hook day
Today we were explorers. The queen sent us a letter asking for Year One to explore a new land. We made a list of everything we needed to take with us and made some binoculars, so we didn’t miss any new fruits or animals. Using our maps we found the best route to take. We all enjoyed the adventure!
