Today we practised the skill by using a needle, wool and binka material. First we learned how to thread the eye of the needle, which was tricky for some, and why we need to knot the longer end of the thread. The children did really well considering many of them had never sewn before. Well done Year 3! | ### Year 3 Sewing [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9308.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9308.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9310.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9310.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9311.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9311.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9312.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9312.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9313.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9313.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9315.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9315.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9317.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9317.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9318.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9318.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9319.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9319.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9320.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9320.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9321.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9321.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9322.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9322.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9323.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9323.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9324.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9324.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9326.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9326.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9327.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9327.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9328.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9328.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9329.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9329.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9330.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9330.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9331.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9331.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9332.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9332.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/14909/IMG_9333.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/14909/IMG_9333.JPG) | |---| [ Algorithms!
