What a week it has been; filled with fun and excellent learning experiences.

We do active spelling tasks on a daily basis, here you can see the kids attempting to make their spelling words from playdough.

Our Big Question this week was all about the Water Cycle so the kids worked in teams to create a model, of the water cycle, with labels using the scientific vocabulary.  The next day they created drawings showing their individual understanding. I was very impressed, they did a great job!

Last week during Big Question we were learning about different ways to filter/ purify water so in ‘Discovery Club’ this week the kids had to design and make an invention that would separate different materials (pasta, split peas and sugar).  The inventions they came up with were INCREDIBLE! We had such a great time testing them out.

Finally we had lots of fun in the snow! Even I got involved sledging down the hill on a plastic tarp!
