Obstacle course

 

It was a brilliant day here on the coast so we decided to get outside and have some fun. We made an obstacle course out of P.E. equipment. We had to run, jump, slide and twist to make it through.

Happy Father's Day!

We hope you all had a lovely Father's day! We were busy making tic tac toe games for our loved ones.

We made these out of plywood, paint, vivid and stones. To keep all the pieces together, we put the game in a fancy bag.

Happy Father's day!

Changing of the seasons

This terms focus is all about change! We have been looking at the changing of the seasons. We were placed in groups and given a season to carefully think about.

We had to think of words relating to our season and our five senses. We then drew a picture relating to the season. We put all of our words into cool text, printed them out, cut and then glued them onto colored backing paper.

We then had the tricky task of making our words and pictures into a mobile. Have a look at the pictures below of the final result. Better yet, come and have a look for yourself, we would love to show you!

 

Discovery Time Looks Like...?

 Room 4 has been looking at our class rules and what those class rules look like during discovery time.

- what does a positive mindset look and sound like during discovery time?
- what does it look and sound like when we are respectful, responsible and resilient during discovery time?
- what does it look like when we are being responsible during discovery time?

Shantytown - Communication

Room 4 went to Shantytown to learn about different types of communication! We had a blast dressing up, travelling on the train and using the old school.

Snow Day

We were lucky enough to have snow on the 4th August 2019! I was sitting having lunch in town when I saw the snow fluttering down on the town. I quickly ate lunch and headed towards the mountains. I wanted to find more snow to play in. All the children in Room Four enjoyed the snow, making snow men and having snow ball fights. We were all hoping the snow would stick around but it seemed to melt as fast as it arrived. Maybe someday soon we can have another amazing experience like we have just had.

Welcome Back!

We are so excited to be back and into action! This week we are looking at how our class rules link to different areas of learning in the classroom. Stay tuned to see pictures of our new class display and blog posts about our learning so far.

Conflict

Room Four has been looking at the word conflict. We have discussed what we think the word means, different forms of conflict and emotions associated with conflict. From here we discussed different ways we can solve conflict and what we can do when we are feeling these different emotions.

Have a look at our brainstorm!

Class Rules

Last week we went over our class rules as we needed a reminder of some of them as the end of term approaches. We discussed the different goals and what they look and sound like in the classroom. We then made a poster that had to include some of the goals, colour and a picture or two. We uploaded these to our blogs. Have a look and leave a comment!

Shower Cakes

Today we made shower cakes out of the following ingredients:
- Soap
- Oil
- Food coloring
- Gelatin
- Hot water

We mixed all the ingredients together and then shaped them. We can't wait to test them out in the shower! Here are some photos of the activity.

Blogging

In Room Four we are learning to write blog posts. We have discussed the different things we need to include in our posts. We are trying really hard to include these things when we are blogging. Have a read of some of our posts and see what you think. Remember to leave a positive, helpful and thoughtful comment. We look forward to hearing from you!

Keeping Ourselves Safe

On Tuesday we had Constable Terri come in to take a lesson on how to keep ourselves safe. We learnt several different strategies that we can have in place to help us if we get in trouble. These strategies include having phone numbers available, making sure someone always knows where you are and tools we can use to get out of a horrible situation. This lesson made us feel a bit uncomfortable but we now feel more equipped to deal with situations where we may be in trouble.

Physical Education

Room Four love getting active on a Thursday for P.E. Last session we learnt the correct way to catch a ball and bounce pass to a partner. Here are some action shots!

A sneak peek at our green poem!

Room Four’s Turning Green

A green poisoning fire that burns as hot as the Nether in minecraft.

Green zombies roaming at night with green slime bouncing as high as trees.

Green slime is the best in this green world.

Slime is green, leaves are to and so are you.

Slime is green as grass grows.

Watch the green grass grow as green as it can be.

Blog Profile

We have learnt all about personal and private information. That means we have learnt what we can and cannot share on the internet.
