Thursday and Friday with Mrs Robertson

We have been learning about the ‘Magical Yet’. It is a lovely story about the power of the word yet and stepping out of our comfort zones to climb the resilience steps. We have learnt that progress is more important than perfection, everyone learns at their own pace, its ok to ask for help and most importantly, changing I can’t do it to I can’t do it yet. We enjoyed discussing the different steps involved and thought about what we wanted to learn and where we are on the steps.

 

We have also been learning about the American artist Grant Wood. We painted farm landscapes in the style of the artist, including lots of detail in our patterns. We also used lines, water colour and simple perspective.

 

We have been learning the skills for netball and played small netball games today. We used our throwing and catching skills but we had to be careful not to move when we had the ball.
