If you were to create an imaginary land what would it be called and what would it be like?

Technology with Room 6

We have begun our Technology unit and have met with room 6 to draw our designs. 
Our topic is Imagination so we have thought of an imaginary world and designed a costume that a character would wear who lives in our world. 

Apple tv and our iPad

Today we had the apple TV up on  the screen. Miss Pethybridge (our student teacher) went onto the kiwi kids news website. There was an article about manners and it told us that a lot of kids were not using manners and some kids at their dinner time are eating their dinner in front of the TV while their parents were at the table having a conversation. Some kids are swearing in public.

Then we went onto the show me app and did some spelling. Miss Pethybridge wrote some words and then we had to add magic 'e's onto the end of the words.
