Room 11's Smartie Maths

On Monday Room 11 had lots of fun sorting Smarties.

 

We sorted our little packets into colour groups and put them on a graph.
 

We coloured in the graph to show the different colour groups.

We found that each packet had different colours.  In some, yellow was the most popular colour, and in others it was blue, green, red, orange, or pink.

 

Finally we got to eat them!  YUM!

 

Poem of the week!

Our poem this week is 'The Gardener Plants the Seeds' and it is also a song.  Room 11 will be planting seeds next week in the school garden.

 

Cynthia and her colourful poem!

 

Poem books will come home every Friday for reading over the weekend.  Please return them each Monday.

Personality Bags

Mrs Pasalic brought her personality bag to school last week, can you remember some of the things she had in her special bag?

 

Mrs Pasalic brought some fantastic items that showed her Croatian culture

She brought things that were special to her and she showed us what hobbies she liked.

Personality Bag

Your task is to prepare a personality bag that reflects your culture, then share it with the class.  In this bag you need to put at least 5 things that tell us something about you as a person and about your culture.  Here are some ideas: clothing, a photo, a hobby that you enjoy, favourite book, a favourite team or sport etc.

Class of 2014!

Our first class photo together...  another one will follow soon once we have everybody present!

 

We had a fantastic start to the year, keeping very busy learning new names and classroom routines.  We have been talking lots about RESPECT, remembering to treat others in the way we would like to be treated. 

 

We had lots of exciting holiday memories to share and did our first writing of the year about these adventures.  

 

Please come into Room11 soon to check our holiday recounts and illustrations.
