Week 2, Term 4

Room 1

Welcome to week 2 of term 4.  This week Joe Ken started School.



This week we got to be scientists.  We did an experiment to see how sunlight can change things.  We put some coloured shapes onto black paper and displayed them in different areas of the classroom to see what will happen.


We put one strip of paper on the wall.  This gets a little bit of sun, but is mostly in the shade.
 

We put two strips in the window where the sun shines brightly in the afternoon.
 

We put the last strip in Miss Rushbrook's cupboard where there is no sun.

We will check back in 2 weeks to see what has happened to our coloured shapes.


Have a good long weekend, and see everyone back at School on Tuesday.

Week 1, Term 4

Room 1

Welcome to week 1 of term 4.  This week Channelle, Orlando, Rico and Rosaline started School.


What a busy first week back.  On Monday we had our first Gymnastics lesson. We are going to be having Gymnastics every Monday afternoon for this term.  It was lots of fun.  We had to make sure our bodies were warmed up by stretching all of our joints.  We played some games and did some different Gymnastic moves.  We liked the 'sausage roll' move!






This term we are going to learn a lot about the Sun.  This is what some of us already know about the sun.



We made our own suns by collaging paper plates with yellow and orange paper.





It is getting closer and closer to Summer, so remember to always bring your school hat to wear at morning tea and lunch.  We need to be sunsmart to keep ourselves safe.

Be sure to check back next week!
