Room 9 Principals Award Winner Term 2

Congratulations Gordon - You always work hard to achieve your personal best!!

WAL our Basic Facts

Playing Slide Maths with my friend

Gordon's Reflection:

"I like Maths.  I like working with the teacher on the mat.  We have been learning about adding in 10s.  I practised my basic fact homework I got 28 out of 30 but I ran out of time to finish to 50.  My teacher is proud of me."

WALT Choose Words to Make Our Writing More Interesting

The Moon is like Mercury because they are both grey.

The Sun is like an orange basketball because it is round and orange.

Writing Reflection

I like to write about similes.

I am so proud when I do good work.

The next step for me is to use more similes in my stories.

WALT List Characteristics of One Character

"I like reading.  I like reading to my dad.  When I get stuck on tricky words I try to sound it out.

I like Reading Eggs."

Showcase Term 2 - Soccer Skills

This term we had fun with two coaches who taught 

us soccer skills.

It was a little bit tricky learning to control the ball 

as we played against each other in the big soccer arena.

We loved playing Shark Attack because we had to protect our ball.

We Are Learning To Draw A Self-Portrait

Self Portraits

This term Room 9/27 have been learning to sketch a picture of our face.

We practised in our sketch books first and it was a very long process.

First we had to get the shape and size of our head right.  Then we had to work on our features like our eyes, nose, ears and mouth and other details that made us who we are.  Then we added in our hair and neck and shoulders.  It was hard work but we are very proud of our finished pictures which we coloured in using pastels.

We Are Learning To Read To An Audience

Gordon's Reflection:

I like reading about animals.

Sometimes reading is hard for me.

When I get stuck on a hard word I try to sound it out.
