Mathematics

Learning to measure and practising skills

We have been learning about measurement this term. This week our task is around measuring our feet and comparing our feet with our buddies. We are learning mathematical language and constructing our knowledge.

Our independent activities are helping us to practise our skills.

 

Wow look at us now!!!

We are so much more confident with our swimming. We have learned to be starfish, water sharks and so much more in the last two weeks. The children have amazing capabilities to learn new things and too try their best.

Science in a Van

Today we had a visit from Science in a Van. Wow!! what an exciting time we had learning what it is to be a scientist. We learned new terms like prediction, scientific thinking, mixture, and separation.

We learned we can use air to move bubbles. We can make bubbles using different mixtures. The type of mixture that we use can make bigger bubbles and make them last a long time. We learned if we use different gases the bubbles might act differently.

 

Learning about ANZAC Day

This week we have been learning about ANZAC day. We have read the story about ANZAC Ted by Belinda Landsberry. Mrs A brought in her families medals that were earned in World War 2. The children also made their own layered art in remembrance of ANZAC day.

 

Playing and learning with digital art and sounds

This afternoon we have been using Chrome Music Lab to create some digital art and our own music.

It has been fun to share our creations with the rest of the class.

 

Building our own Monsters

Monster Art!!

Today we created our own monsters!

It was lots of fun deciding what our monsters would look like...

How many eyes would our monster have??

Would it have legs?

If it could talk.. what would it say?
