Swim Safety

Keeping ourselves safe in water was the message for our last day at swimming. We found out it feels very different if we are in water in our clothes - we feel heavier and it is VERY hard to get out of the pool!
We must always swim between the flags and stay where an adult can see us! Slip, Slop, Slap!

Swimming Week 1

Phonological Awareness ... and alien words

We have been learning to listen for the sounds in words.
We can make 'alien' words with the sounds we know. They just don't make any sense!
We worked in groups to work out which words were real and which ones were alien words.

A Long Term Project

We are polishing stones. They start as rough, plain stones.

It takes four weeks to turn them into smooth polished ones. We can't wait to see what they look like!

'St' week

We made sneetches with stars on their bellies... it doesn't matter what type of sneetch you make - all sneetches are special.

Have you ever heard a teddy's heartbeat? We have!! We listened to heartbeats through a stethoscope. How can a Teddy have a hearbeat without blood to pump? There must be a trick here somewhere!

Time Travel Machine

This term we have a time travel machine in our class. We are writing about things in the past and the future.

In the future, what will we be? We have videoed our ideas (thanks Mrs Ritchie).
Here are our '"When I grow up" stories.




What will it be like living in the future?
We looked at some ideas from a cartoon made 50 years ago... The Jetsons

We designed our own future cities.

Cooperative Maths

We are working in pairs to make geometry posters. We used rulers to help us make the sides of our shapes straight.

Lukas and Max are using a very big numberline to find out the answers to equations.

Last day treat

We have been learning about words that start with 'Spr'. We decorated some biscuits by spreading icing and adding sprinkles!

Step 1: Get the paper towel, knife and biscuits.
Step 2: Spread the icing

Step 3: Add the sprinkles

Step 4: Eat and enjoy!

Read, read, read
