Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it is my new classroom, yay!
Today was another exciting day with cranes, trucks and a shiny new building arriving. When I arrived at school early in the morning I was greeted by a really big crane.
The really big crane parked in the building site attracted lots of attention in the morning (mostly from us teachers)
At 9am sharp half a building arrived. We were in class in the furtherest classroom away from the building site so we missed its delivery. Fortunately the second half arrived at the start of lunch. We abandoned our sandwiches, yoghurt and fruit and ran (yes we did) to the site fence and watched the truck, crane and work men do their magic.
This truck was big and the driver reversed with such precison
The students were learning about part, part, whole in maths. They gave me a lesson on part, part, whole with the building as an example. Smart little buttons they are!
The foreman said it should be about 3 weeks. Yay! Building mounts and building took 2 days. I really thought that was the hard bit but the men made it look easy peasy. I am not a builder but it looks like lots of bolts need bolting, electricity, Internet and a bridge all to be connected. I am sure there is much more to it, but all I can think about is moving in. Yay!!!
