Exploration of Measurement and Patterns

This week in math we have been exploring repeating patterns and measurement. We have been working individually and in small groups.  Everyone contributed to a class pattern that went the length of our room.

Celebrating Book Week

This week we celebrated Book Week and what an exciting week it was.  We had authors and illustrators visit our school. We wrote our own stories in class. We participated in our school's book parade. We read and acted out many different stories. 

We had lots of fun!!!

Math with our Buddies

On Friday our Buddies helped with our math lesson on numbers and counting. They extended our knowledge on writing and counting. 

Welcome to term 3

This week was the first week back after the term break.  The children were very excited to renew their friendships and meet the new children in our class.
We had a fun week of learning!

Our Assembly

On Friday we hosted assembly. The children shared a dance, some songs and their artwork.

Technology and Visual Art

Our Minion Story

 This term we have been learning about technology.  We know that technology is human made and is made for a purpose.

During the term we  have explored our own imagination and creativity through drawing and writing about our idea's for new technology.

As part of a school wide focus to beautify and re use resources in our school we decided to make a planter to make our school fun and playful. Our theme for our planter was something dear to the children's heart the movie "Despicable Me" (our rainy day lunch time movie) and our favourite characters the Minions.

We explored how we would make our Minion. What  shapes and colours did we need. Would our Minion have one eye or two?

We found pictures of tyre Minions on Pinterest.  We had tyres we could use at school.

We worked as a team and cleaned then painted our tyres.

Once our Minion was finished we attached the eyes then planted our plant.


Our Minion was finished today!!
The only thing to do now is name our Minion.
Thank you to everyone who helped and those who donated the soil.

Taekwondo skills

Amazing strength!!!

This term our children have been attending Taekwondo lessons in the hall. They have learned some amazing new skills and some discipline in the sport. Tuesday was our last class and the children learned how to break a board in two.
