Sports Activator

We have has a busy last week at school. We had a great day for Greer to visit to have another session of touch skills. We start off with some warm-up games which were a lot of fun. Then it was time to practice our skills especially passing and stepping. We round off with a quick game which was very fast paced. We are all improving so much each time Greer visits. These lessons are going to help many of us with our after school touch.

Practicing our passing.

Keep an eye on the ball.

Rats and Rabbits!

Baking

The past few weeks for Maths we have been learning about fractions. We have all worked hard and learned a lot. For our reward for working hard this term Miss Chapman let us do some baking! We had to deal with lots of measurements like ½ cup, ⅓ cup and tsp. The class split into two groups and made lolly cake and russian fudge. They both tasted so yum! Unfortunately we didn’t take any photos of the end products as they were gobbled up so quickly!


James checking Bree has measured correctly. 

Flynn stirring the fudge. It was delicious!

Oral Presentation Day

This term our inquiry has been focussed around Then and Now. We have looked at things from the past to what they are like now. These included transport, household items, clothes, and schools. We have worked really hard to produce a speech about a topic we are passionate about. Today was the day we presented them to the whole school, parents and friends of the school. We were all very nervous but everyone of us did a fantastic job. Then it was time to perform our dances we have been learning with Kayleigh Broad after lunch on Thursdays. These were performed down at the hall and we got a big crowd watching us. We got a lot of great feedback that we did an awesome job! Check out some photos of us delivering our speeches and our Then and Now dance performance.

Esther talked about computers from Then and Now.

Tuesday 5th April

Last Wednesday we had our Sports Activator Greer come to school to continue to teach us some football skills.
We were learning how to dribble the ball. We found it is much easier to do this by using the side of our feet instead of our toes!
We started by playing a game of rob the nest where we had to dribble the balls back to our hoops and try to steal the soccer balls from the other teams. It was a lot of fun!
We also did a couple of drills called 4 goals and king of the field which helped us improve our dribbling, goal scoring and fitness. These games also helped us with our defending- we learnt that having a good defense is key to winning games.
We finished our session with practicing kicking goals which proved to be quite a challenge.
These skills will be super helpful especially for those heading to the Football tournament in a couple of weeks.         
Rob the nest!

Goal for Julienne!

iTrailers
Miss Ward has got us making iTrailers about our school and all the fantastic things we do in it. iTrailers are such a cool way of advertising and showing things. We love using the iTrailer app and we are very lucky that we have seven iPads we can use in our classroom to create them!

Check out some photos of us below making our iTrailers. Keep an eye on our blog and school Facebook page for our finished iTrailers!

Rugby World Cup Poetry
Today for writing we did All Black poetry.  The poems we did were acrostic, which is when we took their first name and made up a sentence to go with each letter of their name.  We are doing poetry for writing at the moment.

Check out our collaborative All Black presentation below:

Algebra - Maths
We are learning about Algebra in maths at the moment.  Today we looked at patterns and how to work out what object comes next in a pattern and later on in a pattern without actually having to make the pattern.  We used the New World minis to help us with patterns.

Here are some photos of us learning about Algebra patterns:

Everyone is eager to learn about patterns!

 Having a look at the pattern Miss Ward has made.

 Everyone is eager to answer the questions about the mini's patterns!

So many minis to make patterns with!

A pattern we started.  We worked out what would be in the pattern at certain numbers like 10, 14, 20, 52.
