Check out the blackboards!

 

Hi parents!  Have you seen the Western Heights interactive art space?  There are blackboards on the side of the hall that we get to write on!  Here are a few snaps of us from last term...

 

 The prompt was "I wish..."



 

 Remember to check it out soon! 



Next time Room 11 get to write on the blackboards will be in Week 9.

So watch that space!

 

Star of the week!

 

 

 

 

In week 10, the star of the week was... Amelia!

Amelia has been really focused on her learning tasks this week, always striving to do her very best. She has been a caring classroom helper and a willing worker! Fantastic work Amelia!

 

 

 

In week 9, the star of the week was Angelah! 

Angelah has been working really hard on her reading with her buddy and with her group.  She is always looking out for ways to help others and around the classroom.  That is awesome work!  Well done Angelah!

         Volcanoes!                                           

In Term 2, Room 11 learnt lots of facts about volcanoes and how to use interesting words in our writing to describe an erupting volcano. 

We made little clay volcanoes.

They were all different shapes and sizes, just like real volcanoes!

We left the volcanoes to dry for one week, then we painted the clay.

Finally we put on red paint and glitter for the lava.

 

We painted backgrounds for our volcanoes in little boxes and presented these to Room 12 with our stories.  

 

On the last day of term we even made erupting and bubbling volcanoes in the school sand pit.

First we formed the volcano shape in the sand, then we poured in vinegar, baking soda and food colouring!

 

When the vinegar was poured into the baking soda it looked like a volcanic eruption!

100 days at school!

 

All year we have been counting the days we have been at school.

On Tuesday the 9th of July we celebrated 100 days at school, and being 100 days smarter!

 

 

We brought in a collection of 100 items to count and display in the classroom.

Other classes came in to check out our collections.  

 

 

We wandered around the other junior classes to check out their collections.

 

 

 

 

We tried to stay quiet for 100 seconds!

 

We jumped up and down for 100 seconds!

 

We did counting activities and painted 100 dots!

 

 

We had a delicious shared lunch.

 

In the afternoon we even had a disco and got to dance on the stage!
