The Tikey
The tikey is a mammal. It is a cross between a tiger and a monkey.
Tikey have big round eyes like a marble. It is fluffy and has orange stripes with brown fur. A tikey has huge feet, with claws as sharp as lots of needles.
Tikey lives in school trees and loves the children. They make any tree home, but if a tikey stays too long in a tree, it claws stop working and it tumbles down.
A tikey is friendly and makes children laugh. Tikey loves chocolate and eats it all day long.

It has scales with 8 small stubby legs. Its 4 feet long and its feet can slide up so it slides along. It’s black with orange stripes.

The Griffepuss
The griffepuss lives in the forest in a cave, far away from all the animals. The griffepuss has long legs the size of a tree trunk. The nose is the same size as a stick.
It has a long flapping tail that it can swim with. It has to go swimming in a big river; it can breathe under water for 20 minutes.
It gives birth to eighteen griffepuss every two years, but they do it under water sometimes. The griffepuss lives for 90 years or even 100 years. They die in their home, well caves where they live.

The Great White Shion
The great white shion is a predator that is a shark with a lion’s mane and claws on its flippers. It has live young. It is a cat yet also a shark.
The great white shion looks like a shark with mane and claws under water. Outside water it looks like a lion that’s blue and white underneath. It’s about 13-15 metres long from nose to tail.
The great white shion lives in Africa in the oceans and on land.

Mibi are small beasts. Their biggest size is 5cm. They have brown fur and wings about 1cm. Its claws are 1cm as well. They also have a fluffy tail that is as soft as wool.

Mibi live in our houses and they sneak in and out every day.

TERRIFIC TESSELLATIONS
Room 1’s tessellation art work
Room 1 has been learning about tessellations and we all made our own ones. They look really cool, everybody did a different pattern and a different colour. They’re all very unique.
A tessellation is a template coped on a piece of paper over and over again to make a really awesome pattern then you can decorate it however you like but the simpler it is the better it looks
Everybody had lots of fun making them and they all look so colourful.
