THE FOXES’ NATURAL OBJECT MUSEUM

October 2010

Getting ready for our museum

“We need dinosaur bones to make our classroom look like a real museum.”

“The dinosaurs were the best part because we saw real bones of dinosaurs in London.”

We made signs, labels, invitations and tickets

Stations at the ready!

“I liked saying The Museum is Open!”

The Geologists!

“I love the rock table because we can

clean the dust off the stones. One

stone fell from outer space. A creature

is inside but I have no idea what it is.”

The Rock Table

”Look Ms Rosie, you can even write

with this one on another rock.”

“We banged the rocks together and then we used the dust from the rocks to make an

explosion.”

The Shell Experts

“I liked it when they said you can hear the ocean in one of the shells.”

“ I like the clay impressions of natural objects because everyone liked it and touched it carefully.”

“Quick, get ready they’re coming.”

“I liked giving the tickets and floor plans out the best.”

The Mystery Table“It feels kind of bumpy.”

The Botany Table

Mr Fox’s HouseAfter reading ‘Fantastic Mr Fox’, the Foxes wanted to build a new house for Mr Fox since his was

destroyed. We built a secret tunnel inside it and decided to cover it in natural objects. Mr Fox’s House and the secret tunnel became a top feature at our Museum.

“My favourite part of the museum was when we made the magic trick with Mr Fox’s house. I had Mr Fox and I put him through the hole and then someone else got him from the

other side.”
