What's been happening this week?
Little Authors, Big Stories!
Our Year 1/2 students were so excited to share their very own fables with our Prep students! After working hard to plan, write, revise and publish their stories, our young authors proudly read their fables aloud, sharing their creative characters, exciting adventures and important morals. It was a wonderful opportunity to celebrate their hard work, build confidence and inspire our youngest learners!
BUBBLES OF FUN
During Science this week, the Prep students came into the year 1/2 Classroom to learn about bubbles. We hypothesised, wrote what we discovered and discussed our conclusions. Our experiment was to find out if different shaped bubble wands blew different shaped bubbles. We discovered that it didn’t matter what shape the bubble wand was, the pressure inside the bubble always made the bubble round! We also found other words to describe the bubbles were a circle or sphere. It was such lovely weather as well; we were very lucky scientists.
TEACHER PLAY
Our year 3 & 4 students had fun being teachers and editing our mock NAPLAN writing task.
MATHS FUN
Our little mathematicians have been busy exploring measurement in a fun, hands-on way! Using Unifix cubes as informal units of measurement, students worked together to measure different classroom objects and even each other! From comparing lengths and heights, to estimating, counting and checking their measurements, there was plenty of mathematical thinking, teamwork and laughter along the way! We loved seeing our students learning through exploration and discovering that maths is all around us!
