Sid the Bearded Dragon

Today Sid came to live with us in Learning Hub One!

We said he was

• born in New Zealand
• spikey
• he has holes for ears
• yellowish brown
• his family is from Australia
• he is named Sydney which is a place in Australia
• Sid is a boy

We talked about Sid and drew some picture plans.  Here are some of them...

Dinesan:

"Sid has scales and stripes on the tail and four little legs and a big tongue.  He has a little baby.  I like Sid!"

Kyan:

"I like Sid.  I'd like to invite him to my party and I like when he visits.  I liked his changing colours when he's hot and not hot.  He has a beard and he looks like a dragon but he isn't and that's why they call him a bearded dragon."

Riley:

"Sid is spikey and he has a stripey tail and I like him.  I liked when he visited Stonefields School.  I learned that he eats peas and bugs."

Henry:

"Today I drew the picture of Sid.  Sid is spikey and he only has a hole and doesn't have a thing on the outside (of his ears).  He is brown and he changes to yellow.  I love Sid."


Then we had a go at writing our own descriptions of Sid.  Here Emily, Riley, Lonneke and Isabelle share their ideas with us:
