Masterchef

Last week we celebrated our WOW week with a focus on food.  In room 12 our letter of the week was H so we created hedgehogs made from cheese, pineapple and marshmallows which we put on toothpicks and then put into an orange. At morning tea time we ate what we had made.

At the end of the week in our Discovery Time we made gingerbread men, with room 10, and decorated them with yummy lollies.

We worked together and learnt about sharing in making our colourful creations.

Writing Time

Writing time in Room 12.

1. We are learning how to write our own stories.  

• We have to remember to leave a finger space between words
• We have to start our writing with a capital letter and finish with a full stop
• We have to write down all the sounds we can hear in tricky words.

Mathmatics

Mathematics this term started out with a unit on statistics.  We have been learning how to sort and display objects into a graph.  We learnt about words like most, least, more, less and same and how to describe them using mathematical language.

Swimming

Our PE focus for the first part of this term is Swimming.  We have been developing confidence and exploring what we can achieve in the water.

Discovery Time Fun

For Discovery time today we were focussing on working together to create something.   Brodie and Reuben made a big marble roll together.

Brodie said "I was going to fill up the marble roll with Reuben to the top but we couldn't because we didn't have enough balls!"

Reuben said "Brodie held the marble roll up for me while I put on the glitter things to help hold it up so it could stand up and not fall over."

We felt happy working together.

Look at us working together to make a marble roll.
