Week 10 Term 1

This week Room 8 has been practising learning by looking, by listening and by doing.
Mrs Finucane gave us a problem...how to make a kite out of paper

.


    We had to work together to think about what we already knew, to do some research to find some plans, and then to decide which ones might work.We found out that we might have to make some modifications as we made our plans, and then we got to test them! 


Unfortunately the weather didn't co-operate, so we had to make our own wind...
by running!

Week 9 Term 1

This week we have been finishing our work on "I am different".                                                   
We also completed our final "Star of the Day" chart.
Each day one student was selected to be the star of the day and as a class we wrote a statement about each star and how they act and the things they do at school.Each star then took their poster home and their family also wrote about what they were like at home.            
We learned lots about each other, and the children are very proud of their charts.

Mrs Spencer has also been very busy working with the class and the children have made  some fantastic pictures of Harold,from Life Education.They make our classroom look fantastic!
