Science Journals

Room 5 have started science journal. We use this to record any observations, questions or ideas. Plus we draw and label our experiments in it. Here is some of today's work. 










Science in Room 5

This morning Room 5 did an experiment with Mentos mints and fuzzy drink! The observations they made were great and were able to ask thoughtful questions. Well done my budding scientists!









Week 1 Certificates

Congratulations to these children who recieved certificates this week. 
A huge welcome to the new pod members too!


Pod Folk Dancing

Here is Pod 2 practising some folk dances. We will be learning more once we have finished EOTC activities. 




Reading Sharing

Casey's reading groups have been presenting their learning toady. One group has been learning a play and working on using expression in their voice.  Two other groups have been reading for information and presenting their ideas on a fishbone or a table. I have been impressed with the level of interest from all readers this week. Keep it up!
