Science Fun Run

We jumped over obstacles and ran on benches. We went under nets and tried to shoot a basketball into the net. We also went on giant steps and had to jump off of them. We had to answer some science questions. One question was “what planet do we live on?” and the other was “is there winter on Mars?” We learned that there is winter on Mars! – Isla and Noelle

I liked how they actually tested you about space and telling you interesting facts like there’s winter on Mars! – Manya

The fun run was cool because you got fit. My favourite bit was answering the questions. – Jessica

The thing I liked about the fun run was it made you fit and it was interesting about the facts. I liked crawling under the cargo net. I wish it was outside but I still had fun. – Arthur

I really liked the space run, I hope next time it can be outside. I learned interesting facts about space and I really liked doing the cargo net and the basketball hoop where we tried to shoot in. – Louis

World Book Day

For World Book Day we brought in props to show who our favourite character from a book.

We also took part in the Book Swap Bonanaza! 

“I chose Secret Football Club because I like chapter books and it was a chapter book.” – Sophia

“I chose Fing because it looked good and when you take it out the front cover it’s a giant custard cream!” – Harris

“I chose The Secret Life of Pets because I really like the film.” – Ella

“I  chose a dragon book about how to draw dragons because I’m really bad at drawing and I want to get better.” – Ibrahim

Spelling Stars

Each week we choose lots of active ways to practise our spelling words. Some of our favourites are using Miss MacArthur’s sharpies, writing on the desks with whiteboard pens and speed write. We have even started to think up our own ways to practise our words.

 

Super Sounds

 

We have been learning about how sounds are made. We learned every sound is made through vibrations. We conducted an experiment to try to make sounds. We made a quacking cup. We we our hands and pulled them down the string. When they got stuck on the string, the string vibrated and this made a quacking sound from the cup.

I liked the quacking cup because it was funny when it was vibrating – Mazin

I liked how we learned about vibrations – Noelle.
