We have been powering ahead with our brilliant class novel, High Rise Mystery by Sharna Jackson, and have been playing detective, aiming to solve the ‘Whodunnit’ mystery before we find out in the book. We have slowly but surely been piecing together information and have now added our findings (so far!) to our display wall in class. This display will continue to grow and will no doubt be bursting with more questions, predictions, motives and alibi information in the coming weeks.

Linking with the ‘high rise’ theme, the class have taken a look at ‘perception’ as means of creating a piece of art where the viewer is looking from the ground up at some super tall skyscrapers. We think our artwork is now reaching new heights! 😉

Over the past few weeks, we’ve discussed what zones we’d like in our classroom so that we can participate in ‘Morning Clubs’ from 9-9.30am. This is where we are allowed to play and work on our skills using a variety of activities. We have the construction zone, creation station, reading nook, digital desk and gaming arena. Each week, we’ll be taking a look at what curricular areas and what skills have been developed at each station. Take a look through our photos to see what we’ve gotten up to!

We’ve had another fabulous, non-stop day of fun-filled activities including pickleball, den building, archery, search and rescue, wall climbing, team building and gymnastics. Just to name a few! We’ve been truly spoiled with the weather and have finished the night watching Shrek and the Scotland game. We’re hoping we’ve tired the kids enough that they’ll all go straight to sleep 🤪
