Road Safety Week has been busy with lots of new learning! Here is a snippet of our week this week.

The Apprentice Invention task

The last task for our apprentice topic was an invention task. We had to create a product and create a branding campaign for it. Then we had to prepare a pitch to present our product to Mrs Allan. Mrs Allan voted for her top three favourite. She chose the Medical box by Gridwear as 1st place, Track o Dog by Team Paws was her second favourite then Team Echo and Golden Odyssey were a tie at 3rd place.  Now that the topic is over, here are the overall results for all the tasks combined:

1st place: Team Echo

2nd Place: Team Gridwear

3rd Place: Team Paws

Book Week Outdoor learning

For book week we went outside and created book cover freeze frames by using sticks, stones and things we found outside and someone from your team would take a picture with the Ipad.

Road Safety Posters

For road safety week we made posters and the theme was to make posters to raise awareness of the speed 20 MPH near school areas. The JRSOs will decide the winning posters.

Hand Art

We made some realistic hands using shading and fine lines. It was quite tricky but they turned out really good.

Scratch

We have started our block on coding and animated our names on Scratch. We were able to use movement and sound. Next week we will look at making games.

Health and Wellbeing – Sleep

We learned about the importance of sleep for a healthy lifestyle. We all created sleep action plans to see the benefits of sleep in our life. Here are some tips for a good sleep routine/habit:

• Make sure you have a dark room to help you drift off.
• Make sure your room is tidy – a clean environment is easier to relax in.
• No devices or no screen time before bed.
• Make sure you don’t junk food or sugar full foods before bed.
• Keep your bed time routine consistent.
• If you are worried about something, speak to an adult before bed or keep a diary or journal.
