Skipping WALT: jump with two feet forwards and backwards

The last few weeks we have been learning to jump while using a skipping rope.  Some of us are beginners and are trying our best to jump without getting tangled up in the rope!

Big Book - Lavalava

In Room 8 this week, we have been reading "Lavalava by Lino Nelisi". It is about Sofia, her family and all the things they do while wearing their lavalavas.

We have been using our big book to learn how to read and recognise the sightword "here". We have also been practicing reading with clear and confident voices. Not shouting or mumbling.

Latai wore her lavalava to school today for mufti day, isn't it beautiful.

We recorded ourselves reading lavalava for you. We hope you enjoy it. Press the green button below to hear us reading the story to you.

Fish art

On Friday, Mrs Gunn showed Room 8 & 9 how to create some beautiful paste and dye fish art.

We learnt how to draw fish using simple shapes and lines. We also learnt how to colour them in using bright colourful pastels, making sure not to leave any white spaces, so that when we dyed the water blue our fishes wouldn't turn blue too.

Here are Room 8's fish art. Thank you Mrs Gunn for showing us how to create them.

Macauley and the digger

Today Macauley saw the grey digger behind the fence.  He was so excited he rushed in to tell me where it was because he didnt want me to miss out on seeing it.

Here he is looking very proud in front of his favourite thing.
