Grasshopper Tennis

We have been having Grasshopper Tennis lessons.  We are all getting good at holding our racket
 correctly and doing forehands and backhands.





Inquiry- How we communicate.


We are asking questions about telephones and researching to discover answers.  We made some string and cup telephones.  We learnt about how the sound waves and vibrations travel along the tight string.
