Grandparent's Concert

On Thursday  28th August and Friday 29th August Team 1 and 2 invited their grandparents to a concert. Each room put on an item. Room 4's item was 'Captain Quake and Boss Bird' written by Jill Eggleton. We enjoyed being sailors on Captain Quake's ship. Some of us to 'clean the decks', some had to 'mend the sails' and the rest had to 'fix the ropes'.  Ryder and D'rhyas were Captain Quake and Riley was Boss Bird. When the concert was over our grandparents came to our classroom and had their photos taken with us. Our grandparents loved our concert and between them all they donated $1,600 for new library books. Thank you Grandparents. 
Riley was Boss Bird and she is squawking to let Captain Quake know that the sailors are not doing their job.


These sailors are meant to be mending the sails but they are rolling in the ropes.

These sailors are meant to be fixing the ropes but they are skipping with the ropes. 

Captain Quake is crying because he thought that Boss Bird was dead.

These sailors are meant to be cleaning the deck but they are dancing with the buckets and brooms.

100's board

These 3 boys worked together to put the numbers on the 100's board. They did it before school one day. They were proud of their effort. Well done Lukas, Majah and Francesco.

Geometry - Position

The position of an object can be described. 
We used the position word cards, teddy bears and blocks to show position. We could tell our partners about what we had done.







Discovery day - Geometry

We had a Discovery Day about geometry and there were lots of interesting things for us to do in the Hall. We made things symmetrical, made 3D shapes and Miss Hutchings did some face painting. The pictures on our faces were symmetrical. We love Discovery Day and trying lots of different things.










Geometry - reflection

In geometry we were learning about how the position and appearance of an object can be changed by reflecting (flipping) it. We used mirrors to see how our pattern would look when we flipped the shapes over the strip of cardboard. When we had completed our task we took a photo of the result.
