• We start lining up with the other students but Elliott is a bit shy.
• Many of the students know about him & are delighted to meet him. Elliott is not quite so sure.

• The 2nd picture is a landscape “ 4 Cows Milkmaid & other characters with town in the background”.
• Elliott plays a starring role as the dog & helps Jo demonstrate what is happening in one part of the painting.
• Elliott is a very good dog & produces a few “woofs” too.

• Elliott & I go on a bit of a journey through “Monet land” starting with the Bridge. Somehow or another we start looking for places where crocodiles might like to live & hide in other Monet paintings. Crocodiles would like these watery places & could hide easily.

Would crocodiles like to live in these places? Why is that?

Would crocodiles like to live in any of these places? Why would that be ?

• We have all had a lovely morning in the Gallery.
• Now its time to find the shop.
• Elliott could chose one thing. He wanted a toy soldier. So we sang many renditions of the “Grand Old Duke of York” as we got ready to leave.
