Wheels and Burger Day

Wheels and Burger Day

On Wednesday we had wheels and burger day at school.  Everybody had a chance to ride their scooters, roller skates and skate boards around the grounds. At lunchtime we all enjoyed eating delicious burgers, wow what a fun day!

Inquiry

The Nepal Earthquake

We have been finishing off our inquiry topic on People in Need.  We completed our research and have presented our findings as a pic collage.

Here are a few of them to show you.  Well done room 2, great research!

Nepal Earthquake

Inquiry topic

Our inquiry topic for the second half of this term has been about helping people in need. We have been studying the Nepal earthquake.  We have been learning about how and why earthquakes occur and discussing how people are affected by natural disasters such as earthquakes.

We have written wonderful recounts on our earthquake experiences and created beautiful poems to do with the Nepal quake.  Great learning room 2!

Maths on Friday

Everyday Maths

We have just started to look at fractions and because we covered measurement this term I had promised a baking day! Here we are making chocolate chip oat cookies.  We measured the ingredients and we saw the difference between 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 cups.  The children really enjoyed making the biscuits and I'm sure they enjoyed eating them too!

Buddy class

Buddy class

On Thursday afternoon, our buddy class introduced us to a fun Egyptian game called seega. It's a game of strategy, a little bit like naughts and crosses.  Room 2 really enjoyed challenging our buddies.  Thanks Mr Ricketts and room 5!
