Kick It action

Here we are practising our soccer skills for our final Kick It session. It has been a great chance to develop our soccer skills and then use them in a variety of games.
Post a comment to show what you enjoyed most about Kick It.

Isaac the Maths Teacher

Here is Isaac marking the Mighty Maths Maintenance that he set for the class. He did a great job of making us think through problems and talk about our strategies. Great job Isaac!

Hero of the Week - Cameron!

This week we are celebrating our latest Hero of the Week -Cameron! We had so many great comments to make about our classmate Cam. Lots of people have noticed how focussed Cam has become with his work and how much effort he is putting in to be the best he can be with everything.
Keep up the great work Cam - we're so glad you're on our team!

Mysteries Galore!

Last week we were exploring and investigating science mysteries.
We learned about making observations of facts and then using our facts to make inferences.
It certainly got our brains buzzing ...

Post a comment on the blog to explain your ideas or experiences with the Mystery Science Box. What would scientists say about what we were learning?

More Mighty Mathematicians

Here are two more Mighty Maths teachers from Room 4. Kyle and Charlotte set the Mighty Maths Maintenance for the class and then marked it with us. What a great job they did!
They say that "To teach is to learn twice," and Kyle and Charlotte certainly demonstrated their maths knowledge. Who will be this week's Mighty Maths teachers?

Once upon a Brown Bear ...

In Room 4 we are learning to identify and use the features of a narrative. As part of our literacy work we have been writing 6 sentence narratives by following criteria ... a whole story in 6 sentences, amazing!
Now we are going to write a 6 sentence narrative about our dear friend Brown Bear.
I'll start with the first sentence, however if someone posts a better sentence I'll swap it.
Once upon a time there was an adventurous bear cub called Brown Bear .    (Now follow the criteria to post a comment for the second sentence and I'll post the most interesting one. Remember it's an imaginative story.) 

More Mighty Maths Teaching

Taylor was our Mighty Maths Maintenance man today. He worked out 10 problems for us to solve and then did a great job of marking it as well. It's great to see people having a go and taking some risks. Have you been inspired by our classmates? Leave a comment about Taylor's maths or explain what you would like to teach the class.  

Kick It Catch Up

Here we are practising our soccer skills during Kick It. We practised our skills in a variety of ways and used our skills in different games. How did you develop your skills further?

Ben R teaching Maths

Look who was teaching Mighty Maths Maintenance in Room 4 this morning! Ben had to prepare 10 questions that would help us practise our strategies and he did a fantastic job. He was great at asking for ideas from the class, giving praise and only asking people sitting quietly with their hand up.
Well done Ben - I think you might be after my job!
 You can post a comment to give Ben some quality feedback.

Mystery in Room 4!

This week we are learning about the Nature of Science through our investigations with a Mystery Box of objects. We are learning to use a range of senses to make observations and then use our scientific thinking to  explain our ideas and make inferences.
Post a comment about an observation you made about the geode or share your experience about the mystery bags.

Hero of the Week -Dekorah!

Dekorah is our latest Hero of the Week. She is a great class member of Room 4. We had so many positive things to say about Dekorah and if you would like to add another comment we would love to read it.
