Here is a short clip of some of our dance routine.  Thanks so much to room 2 and Mrs Olynsma. 
We really enjoyed the show yesterday and we were so proud of you all and how well you danced!

Husky Visit

Today we had a special visit from a Husky dog club. The children learnt how to pat the dogs correctly and saw the Husky dogs in action. Hannah  in room 2 was lucky to have a ride on the bike sled, she got a little muddy but looked to be having a great time!

PJ and Hot Chocolate day

Celebrating Maths week

Maths Trail

Today rooms 7,8, 1 and 2 did a maths trail in celebration of Maths week.  The children had to work in teams to solve 16 problem solving questions that involved counting and measuring.  The children had fun running actively engaging in real life maths.

 

Meet our Class Pet

Fluffy

We had such an exciting morning on Tuesday because it was our first day with our class pet.  Fluffy is a ginger and white, long haired male guinea pig and he is so cute. The children learnt how to handle him correctly and as a class we worked out the rules and feeding and cleaning roster. We had lots of cuddle time with Fluffy that day.  He looked terrified and didn't move much but the following day he seemed use to the hustle and bustle of our classroom. The children all wrote wonderful descriptions of Fluffy, which you will find below.  Here are some photos as well. 

Our class pet Fluffy’s eyes are red like fire flies flying around a jar.  He has a white patch above his head and very cute ears.  He has a good smile with a nose and it’s like a V and a line. Isabelle

Our class pet I like Fluffy because he used to not walk but the next day he walked and he ate a lot.  When we held him he ate some silverbeet.  I love him so much he is so fluffy and he is the third best guinea pig. Carter

Our class pet We have a class pet.  The class pet is a guinea pig.  Its name is Fluffy and its colour is like a caramel colour.  Its eyes are red.  It has a white stripe and it’s very cute.  It feels like a teddy bear. Charlie

Our class pet We have a pet in the class.  It’s called Fluffy.  He is a man guinea pig.  We are going to get another guinea pig so Fluffy will have a buddy to play with.  Fluffy has sensitive ears so we have to be quiet.  Sometimes we have cuddle time (that means we cuddle Fluffy).  At the first day he was scared, he didn’t move a bone and he did not blink and did not eat.  The next day he was munching away.  Today is day three for Fluffy.  Fluffy likes to hide a lot. We made a castle for Fluffy out of a cardboard box. Lucy

Our class pet Fluffy is new to the class and we have to be extra quiet so he’s not scared of us.  He is as fluffy as a bear.  He feels like a carpet in a ball.  He looks like a gingerbread man with a white button. Campbell

Our class pet He looks like fluff and he has two colours.  He is cute.  He feels like a bed and he feels like dogs fur.  He is so cute and he has little toes and he has pink eyes.  He likes carrots and green grass and broccoli leaves too.  He likes to hide in hay and tunnels. Cooper

Our class pet He is really soft and he is cute.  He likes to eat a lot of broccoli leaves.  He can hear very well.  He’s my best friend.  He looks good and he is not scared of us anymore.  He is not allowed outside unless he gets a check-up from the vet.  He likes to hide in the hay and in his box and he doesn’t move a muscle if we scare him.  I like him lots and lots.  He likes his food because he likes to sleep a lot.  He has little paws and red eyeballs.  Now he has a tunnel to go through. Isaac

Our class pet Yesterday we got Fluffy.  Fluffy is a guinea pig.  Yesterday Fluffy was scared.  He is a cute ginger with a white stripe on him.  He feels like he has long silky hair and he is fluffy, that is why we called him Fluffy, you cutie. He has shiny red eyes that gleam like buttons on a teddy bear.  He is light ginger with a happy smile. Arden

Researching our class pet

Which pet is best?

Today we finished our research projects on our class pet.  We researched 4 different pets, rabbit, guinea pig, turtle and goldfish. We researched their living spaces, diets, what toys they need and costs to purchase.  We had a class discussion and vote, then we went to our buddy class and shared our new knowledge.  

We all decided that a guinea pig would make an ideal pet.  Hopefully we will have our new addition by Tuesday so keep a watch as there will lots of pictures on our blog!
