Over the last few weeks, while looking after our eggs and alevin, we have been helped by visiting scientists, Gemma, Paul and Emma. We have felt very proud to have looked after these lovely creatures during this part of their life cycle*. We have also been pleased to share our knowledge with Gemma, Paul and Emma. Thank you to them too, for answering all of our many questions.
Hopefully we can continue to look after our fish well until it is time to release them in a local waterway.

Our hatchery was delivered by Gemma (Dr Gemma Jennings) on Monday 16 January. She set it up for us and showed us how to look after it. Our trout eggs would not be delivered for another week, so in the meantime, we had to practise keeping the tank cool and at a steady temperature for our eggs.
In Literacy, in class, we have been learning how to write Learning Statements. We have learned to reflect on our learning, stating what we have done well and how we accomplished this.
We have five questions to answer which help us write our statement. the questions are:
What have I learned?
How have I learned this?
How is this useful?
What skills have I learned?
What attributes have I displayed?
We each add our statements to our e-portfolios and this helps us build up a record of our learning. Other teachers, future teachers and employers will be able to read these and see how well we work.
Welcome to our class blog.
