Getting ready for our Trip

 

This week we have taken part in a lot of our IDL topic work.  We were confident individuals learning about the process of going to the airport.  Then we went to our Oak Travel Agents to book our holiday to Australia.  The boys were able to be effective communicators to share information about their dream holiday.

They worked on their literacy skills, reading, writing and signing / speaking to tell their friends how many people were going on their holiday, the type of accommodation they would like to sleep and their mode of transport to get to Australia.

This week we were effective contributors to help make our Lamington Australian cake,  the boys listened to instructions well when baking this cake.

Australian Didgeridoo – IDL

This week for our Australian topic work we explored didgeridoo sounds. We made our own didgeridoo and enjoyed making a lot of noise.  We were confident individuals in deciding our creative colourful design for our didgeridoo.

During Music we used sticks to work on our timing and rhythm to some Australian sounds, Kenny the Kangaroo and Kookaburra songs.  They both had different speeds and the boys explored and demonstrated this well.

National Digital Technology Week

National Digital Technology Week, we have been enjoying taking part in the literacy and numeracy tasks this week on the iPad.

We were successful learners when we were taking part in a group challenge during our time work.  We were experiencing how long one minute felt and who could pop the most balloons in a minute.  Nathan was the champion! There was a lot of concentration from all the boys during this challenge.

We had a fun party for one of our class friends to wish him good luck!

We all enjoy coming together and having a laugh.

Sensory PE

The Oak boys were confident individuals when trying out the new activities in a sensory PE lesson.  The boys took part in deep pressure activities and used equipment that gave their body a lot of feedback, which will help them feel more settled.  We had lots of fun trying out all the activities!

Looking after our Earth

As part of Earth day we have taken part in activities all week that have been linked to looking after our Earth.

We used no electricity when taking part in our cooking lesson, we walked into town rather than using transport and we tidied up our garden patch.

We all were effective contributors when making our no bake truffles, we all had an important role to play in the process.

We worked hard on learning how to tell the time working on our ILP targets.

We walked into town with the Transition class, we went to the shops to buy colourful items for our garden patch to help brighten it up.  We are yet to be successful in growing any plants, so we are brighten up it up in other ways.

World Earth Day

To celebrate world Earth Day we enjoyed completing our activities in the garden so we were not using any electricity for light, we used the natural day light to see our work.  We found leaves and rubbed them through the paper to create our flower to remind people about recycling and looking after the earth.
