Cooper Room



The Cooper children were delighted to have the monster truck visit us this week and decided to create their own monster trucks in the classroom. They used large boxes, paper plates and other collage materials to build their vehicles. Emerson covered his with blue paper and yellow headlights and told us it was "Batman's truck". Rocco made an enormous green monster truck and Louis made a black one. Alex's had many headlights around it and Toby added long strips of paper between the wheels of his and told us they were "coupling rods", making it into a train. The children discovered that the trucks slid well across our wooden floors if they sat in them and pushed along with their arms. We had our own real monster truck show right there in Cooper!
Kind regards,
Cooper Team
